Using PraisePro in Your Language

The whole app, including notification emails, works in English, Spanish, Russian, and Ukrainian.

Available Languages

Many churches serve congregations where not everyone is most comfortable in English. If you have been searching for church scheduling software in Spanish, Russian, or Ukrainian, PraisePro speaks all of them out of the box. The entire app is available in:

This is not just the menus. Service planning, the calendar, team pages, and the notification emails PraisePro sends (assignment notices, reminders, and more) are all translated. A volunteer who reads Ukrainian and a worship leader who reads English can share the same church account, and each sees PraisePro in their own language.

Switching Your Language

Your language choice is per device, so the phone you carry on Sunday and the computer in the church office can each use a different language. There are two places to switch:

On the login page

  1. Go to my.praisepro.app.
  2. Look at the language row at the bottom of the login card. It lists English, Русский, Українська, and Español.
  3. Click or tap the language you want. The page reloads in that language right away, and it sticks for this device.

Inside the app

  1. Open the Account tab.
  2. Find the Language setting.
  3. Pick your language from the list. The app switches immediately.

Tip: Because the choice is saved per device, you do not need to change anything for anyone else. Each person on your team simply picks their own language on their own phone or computer.

Setting a Church-Wide Default

Admins can choose the language that new people start in, so a Spanish-speaking congregation never has to see English first.

  1. Open the Account tab.
  2. Scroll to the Organization section.
  3. Set the Organization language.

Here is how the default works:

Tip: Serving a bilingual congregation? Set the organization language to the one most of your volunteers read, and let the rest switch individually. Everyone gets the app in the language they actually read.

Emails in Each Member's Language

PraisePro sends emails when people are assigned to serve, when a service is coming up, and for other notifications. You do not have to configure anything for these to be translated: each email automatically uses the language of the member receiving it.

When someone picks their language in the app or on the login page, PraisePro remembers it for their account. From then on, their assignment notices and reminders arrive in that language. One service, one team, and every volunteer gets their Sunday reminder in words they read comfortably.

Dates and Calendars

Language support goes beyond translated words. Dates, weekday names, and month names localize too. The calendar, service dates, and date labels throughout the app follow the language you picked, so "Sunday, March 1" reads naturally whether your team sees it in English, Spanish, Russian, or Ukrainian.
