TL;DR
Easter brings record attendance and engagement—but momentum often fades quickly. OnlineGiving.org helps churches keep that momentum going with its Custom Forms Feature, enabling guest follow-ups, prayer requests, event sign-ups, and more—all fully integrated with your giving platform and ChMS. Unlike third-party tools, our forms live in one place, saving time and money. Use them to engage attendees during service and stay connected long after.

How to Turn Your Biggest Sunday Into Lasting Engagement
Easter is your church’s biggest day—highest attendance, most online viewers, and peak generosity. But what happens the Sunday after?
If your experience is like many churches, attendance dips dramatically, energy fades, and the post-Easter lull settles in. So the real question becomes: How do you maintain momentum after Easter?
The Post-Easter Engagement Challenge
The average “active” churchgoer now attends less than twice per month. That means staying connected with your congregation—especially your Easter guests—requires intentional and ongoing engagement beyond just a single service.
At OnlineGiving.org, we believe engagement is mission-critical. That’s why we’ve built tools to help churches move from event attendance to ongoing connection—starting with our powerful Custom Forms Feature.
Don't Just Prepare for Easter—Plan Beyond It
Most churches spend weeks preparing for Easter: planning sermons, coordinating volunteers, fine-tuning worship sets, and organizing outreach efforts. But few spend equal time planning how to sustain that momentum once the service is over.
The good news? You don’t have to wait. You can start building that post-Easter momentum during your Easter services.
With OnlineGiving.org, you can connect attendees to your church’s ministries and mission in real time—while they’re in their seats—with custom forms that integrate directly into your giving platform and ChMS.
Custom Forms: Beyond Just Data Collection
Our Custom Forms Feature goes far beyond simple data capture. These forms are designed for meaningful ministry engagement, seamlessly integrated with your giving system and your church management system (ChMS).
What Makes Our Forms Different?
- Integrated engagement: No more managing forms in separate tools like Google Forms or Jotform.
- Automatic syncing: All form responses flow into your ChMS—no manual entry.
- One platform: Event sign-ups, donations, payments, and engagement all live in one place.
- Cost-effective: No need for another vendor or subscription.
Creative Ways Churches Are Using Custom Forms
Some of our partners are using over 100 different forms to connect with their congregations. Here are just a few inspiring examples:
- Guest Sign-Ups
Display a QR code during service that leads to a form capturing key visitor information—automatically synced to your ChMS. - Prayer Requests
Let attendees share prayer needs during or after service. You can even trigger automated notifications to your prayer team. - Event Registrations
From baptisms to youth camps, custom forms streamline registration and payments in one seamless experience. - Interactive Sermon Notes
Create fill-in-the-blank sermon notes with Scripture references that attendees can follow live and have emailed to them afterward. - Surveys with Conditional Logic
Need feedback on a potential new service time? Use smart surveys that adapt based on how users respond to earlier questions.
