Ever sent the Saturday-night "are you still good for tomorrow?" text to fifteen people? This one's for you. Micheal and Kari walk through B1's free service-planning tools — for worship teams AND children's ministry.

Schedule your team: set up each room or role as a position (two adults each in kids ministry), keep your consistent teachers with Copy from Previous, fill rotating roles like check-in with Auto Assign, and let the Validation panel confirm every spot is covered before Sunday — volunteers notified automatically. Build your run of show on the Service Order tab, and pull in songs from the built-in PraiseCharts library.

For kids ministry: connect Lessons.church and bulk-schedule your whole curriculum across Sundays in one step — it shows up on your teachers' phones to prep, and plays on the classroom TV through FreePlay. One schedule, both places.

Plus: why "we're too small for this" is exactly backwards, and how a clear schedule is a gift to your volunteers.

Try It This Week: Go to Serving → Plans and build one plan for this coming Sunday — add your teams and positions, then run Auto Assign.
