Turn one ministry conversation into a clear next step

The easiest way to feel Mayetik is to run one focused session, generate the brief, then ask what it revealed.

Share with

A pastor, ministry leader, small group coordinator, or volunteer

Time

10-15 minutes

Expected output

A searchable brief with ministry context, relationship knowledge, and follow-up needs

Use identified or anonymous sessions, and control what pastoral or congregational context is captured and who can view it.

Church knowledge lives in conversations.
Almost none of it gets recorded.

A pastor who has served a congregation for 15 years carries an extraordinary amount of institutional knowledge — who is struggling, which ministries have tried and failed before, what the congregation responds to, who the key relationships are. When they leave, none of that is written down.

The same is true for every ministry leader, small group facilitator, and long-tenured volunteer. The knowledge that holds a church together lives in relationships and conversations — and it almost never survives a transition.

Mayetik gives your church a way to capture it — through guided sessions that feel like conversations, not forms — before it walks out the door.

We hired a new youth pastor and realized we had no record of what worked in the previous program — or why it ended.

Executive Pastor, mid-size church

Our founding pastor retired and we spent the first year just trying to understand things he knew intuitively about our congregation.

Elder Board Chair

We do a member survey every year but we never know what to do with the results. They live in a spreadsheet nobody opens.

How it works

A session takes 5–15 minutes. The brief is ready before the conversation is forgotten.

1

Run a structured session

Describe what you want to learn — pastoral care check-in, ministry debrief, new member discovery — and Session Studio designs the questions. Or pick a template. Share a link.

2

Get a brief automatically

Every completed session generates an AI knowledge brief: a summary, key themes, and recommended follow-up. No write-up required. The conversation becomes a record.

3

Brief the next ministry leader

Ask your knowledge base plain-language questions — what is the congregation processing right now? What did we learn from the last transition? — and get sourced answers. Every new leader starts with the context your church has built.

Six ways churches use Mayetik

One tool, six distinct ministry knowledge problems.

Pastoral Care

When someone shares a difficult situation with a pastor, that conversation stays with that pastor. If they leave, so does the context.

Run structured pastoral check-in sessions. Each response generates a brief that captures themes, needs, and follow-up care — creating a pastoral record that survives leadership transitions and informs whoever ministers to that person next.

  • Structured care sessions — text or voice
  • AI brief for every conversation
  • Context that lives with the church, not the person

Congregation Health

We sense something is shifting in our congregation — but we have no systematic way to hear from people at scale.

Share a link in your bulletin, app, or weekly email — no account needed for respondents. Each completed session generates a brief. When you have enough, ask your knowledge base what the congregation is processing right now and get sourced answers.

  • No account needed — works for any congregation member
  • Anonymous or identified — your choice
  • Ask across all responses: what themes are emerging?

Ministry Debrief

We run the same programs every year. The people who ran them before aren't here anymore, and we rebuild everything from scratch.

Run a structured debrief with ministry team leaders after every major event or program season. Each session captures what worked, what didn't, and what to do differently. Next year's team inherits the knowledge automatically.

  • Debrief sessions after every major ministry event
  • Searchable record of what worked and what didn't
  • New leaders inherit context from day one

Leadership Transitions

Our worship pastor is leaving after 12 years. We've never thought about how to capture what they know before they go.

Run a structured knowledge transfer session with any staff member or key volunteer before they transition out. The brief covers what they know, who to call, what to watch for, and what they'd want their successor to know. It becomes part of onboarding the next person.

  • Knowledge transfer sessions before anyone transitions
  • Briefs that become onboarding documents
  • Institutional memory that survives turnover

Small Group Health

Our small group leaders are doing important work, but we have no visibility into how groups are really doing — until someone raises a concern.

Run quarterly check-ins with small group leaders through a shared session link. Each response generates a brief. Synthesize across them: what themes are coming up across groups? Where are people struggling? What needs are going unmet across your network?

  • Quarterly check-ins with all small group leaders
  • Brief for every leader response
  • Synthesis across all groups — one click

New Member Discovery

People come through our membership class, but we never really learn why they came or what they're hoping to find.

Run a short discovery session with new members in their first few weeks. Understand what drew them, what they're looking for, and what would make them feel at home. After a few months, synthesize across responses to understand who your church is reaching and what they need.

  • Discovery sessions with every new member
  • Understand what's drawing people to your church
  • Synthesize across new members over time

Here’s what you get from every session

One session produces a brief. Multiple sessions produce themes. Themes tell you what your church is experiencing right now.

AI Knowledge Brief

Pastoral Care Check-In · James R.

Completed

Summary

James is navigating a difficult stretch following a family illness and a recent job change. He shared that his attendance has dropped because evenings are hard right now — not because his faith or connection to the church has changed. He expressed appreciation for being reached out to and noted he feels somewhat invisible in the larger congregation.

Key themes

Family strainIsolation from congregationNeed for practical supportFaith remains strong

Insights & recommendations

  • Follow up personally in 2–3 weeks — James noted that emails get missed but a call would mean a lot.
  • Connect with his small group leader to create low-pressure ways to re-engage.
  • Flag for the care team's awareness; he is not in crisis but is at risk of drifting without outreach.

Important for congregation reach

Congregation members never need to create an account.

Share a link in your bulletin, weekly email, or church app. Members complete the session in a browser tab — no login, no download, no friction. Responses can be anonymous or identified, your choice. Voice input is available for members who prefer to speak rather than type.

Confidentiality & access

Mayetik is a structured knowledge capture tool — not a counseling record, clinical notes system, or crisis-care platform. It is designed for ministry continuity, not for sensitive pastoral care documentation.

Responses are visible only to the project admins you designate — not to other congregation members
Respondents can remain anonymous — name and contact are optional
No respondent account required — just a link
Role-based access controls who can read, run, or export sessions
Shareable brief packs and exports — your data stays in your hands
Recommended starting point

Start with a Ministry Transition Debrief

If you have a pastor, elder, staff member, or ministry leader who is transitioning out — or who you want to capture before they do — this is the session to run first. It surfaces the congregation relationships, unwritten processes, and institutional knowledge that live only in that person’s head.

The result: a structured brief you can hand to their successor on day one, with shareable exports when you need a clean transition packet.
