The daily life of a solo pastor

You're drowning. Your volunteers are burning out. And some are drifting away without anyone noticing.

You prepare your worship service on Saturday night, after a full day's work. You keep the volunteer schedule in a notebook. And there's that person in the hospital you still haven't called back - again.

  • Hours of admin work that come before people
  • The sister in the hospital or the brother in trouble that we forget to call
  • The volunteer wearing down, in silence, until they break
  • The member who quietly stopped coming - and slips out of sight
  • Notebooks and spreadsheets that don't talk to each other

The shepherd notices the sheep

Eklez quietly spots the person who has drifted away, so you can call them. Never a judgment - just attentiveness.

Being present at the right moment

The right reminder, the right visit, at the right moment. Eklez gives you back the hours admin work used to take.

Your data stays confidential

Religious affiliation is sensitive data. Eklez is built for confidentiality from the very start.

What it changes

Five ways to give you back time for people

Eklez handles what weighs you down, so you can devote yourself to what matters.

01

Preventing disengagement

Spot the person who has quietly stopped coming, before they slip out of sight.

02

Pastoral care

Be present at the right moment, and never again forget the sister in the hospital or the brother in trouble.

03

Preventing volunteer burnout

See the strain coming before the breaking point, and relieve those carrying the church on their shoulders.

04

Members' spiritual engagement

Nourish the life of the church and walk alongside each person through the seasons.

05 - the foundation

Church administration, handled cleanly and without errors

Schedules, follow-up, admin: everything is kept up to date, in one place. It's the foundation everything else rests on - and it's also the proof that Eklez keeps its promises.

"And on top of that, it takes care of all the admin."

What's inside Eklez

Built for the reality of pastoral life on the ground

One assistant, for the solo pastor. Nothing superfluous, nothing to memorize.

The "La Colombe" assistant

A discreet assistant that picks up on weak signals - a prolonged absence, a volunteer wearing down - and suggests who to call, without ever judging.

Member care

Profiles, attendance, life events: a person's entire journey at a glance, so you never lose sight of anyone again.

Internal messaging

Team channels and direct messages, as smooth as a consumer messaging app - but in a closed, private space.

Events & attendance

Worship services, retreats, training: plan, invite and track attendance in real time, with QR code check-in.

Sermon support

Prepare your messages, structure your sermon outlines and repurpose your sermons in multiple formats - a lighter Saturday night.

Clear financial overview

Gifts, offerings, budgets by department: a clear, exportable view, so you can report to the board without spending your evenings on it.

Eklez handles admin well. But it's never the goal - only what frees up your time.

The founder's story

Elie Tatukila

A pastor on Sundays, an engineer all week - and the same tiredness you carry.

At sixteen, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, I gave my life to Jesus. I've never left the Church since. I started out doing everything: intercession, evangelism, welcoming, ushering… right down to stacking the chairs and cleaning the hall.

In Liège, in 2001, alongside Pastor Jean Tshiteya, I served in the youth ministry, the choir, evangelism and the sound booth. Then, in 2011, came Luxembourg: a tech lead consultant during the week, and El Shaddaï church - alongside Pastor Adama Ouedraogo, now with the Lord - where my ministry took on another dimension: preaching and pastoral care.

That's where I came face to face with what every pastor lives. Someone drifts away, and you only notice weeks too late. Schedules, events, logistics - to the point of being exhausted before the program has even begun.

It was in that context that the Lord inspired Eklez: a pastoral copilot that watches over souls so none is lost, and carries the admin so you can return to what matters - prayer, the Word, and the care of people.

I carry this double calling: technology and the Gospel. Eklez was born where these two worlds meet. May God bless you.

No score, no judgment

Eklez assigns no spiritual score and judges no one. It helps you notice the sheep that has quietly drifted away, so you can call them. Always relational.

Not a replacement

Neither the pastor, nor the Holy Spirit

Eklez replaces no one. It gives back the hours admin work used to steal, so you're available when the Spirit prompts you toward someone.
