Church Contact Form Template

A church website's contact form serves three very different visitors: the family checking you out before Sunday, the member with a prayer request, and the person asking about weddings or baptisms. One form, one routing dropdown, all three handled.

How to add it

How to add this form to your site.

To add a Church Contact Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.

Add a reason dropdown

Options: 'I'm new / planning a visit', 'Prayer request', 'Weddings, baptisms & dedications', 'Volunteering', 'General question'. That one field routes everything.

Route by ministry

Webhook or BCC each reason to the right inbox — prayer requests to the pastoral team, visitor inquiries to the welcome team, event questions to the office. Nobody's message sits unread for a week.

Reply before Sunday

Set up an auto-responder that thanks the sender and tells visitors what to expect (service times, parking, kids check-in). A same-week personal follow-up is what turns a website visit into a pew visit.

What's included

What's included.

Most church websites run on a volunteer-maintained WordPress or Squarespace site, and the contact form is either broken or dumps everything into one unwatched inbox. The fix is a routing dropdown — 'I'm new', 'prayer request', 'weddings / baptisms', 'general question' — with each option BCC'd or webhooked to the right person. Prayer requests deserve confidentiality and a fast, personal reply; a first-time visitor inquiry deserves a warm welcome email before Sunday. One form can honour both. Works on volunteer-maintained sites — no plugin, nothing to break, free to start.

Where submissions go

Where submissions go.

Reply-to is wired to the visitor's email, so one tap on Reply answers them directly — while the built-in honeypot and automatic spam scoring filter out bots before they reach you. Every submission is emailed to your inbox and can forward to a webhook or Slack the moment a visitor hits send.

  • Reply-to wired to the visitor's email — reply straight from your inbox
  • Honeypot and automatic spam scoring filter bots, no CAPTCHA friction
  • Live dashboard, CSV export, and signed webhooks on paid plans

How SplitForms works

What happens after someone submits your form?

splitforms receives the submission, filters spam, saves it to your dashboard and emails you — then, on paid plans, sends it on to your webhooks and integrations. No backend infrastructure to build.

Where can submissions go besides email?

On paid plans, submissions can also go to Slack, Discord, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Zapier or any signed webhook — and splitforms works on the platforms you build on, from WordPress and Shopify to Next.js. With Stripe connected, your forms can take payments too.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

View all FAQs
Are prayer requests kept confidential?

Submissions go only to the email addresses you configure — they're not published anywhere. splitforms stores them encrypted at rest, and you can delete any submission permanently from the dashboard. Add a 'share with prayer team / pastor only' checkbox if your congregation expects that distinction.

Does this work on our Squarespace / Wix / WordPress site?

Yes — the form is plain HTML and posts to splitforms, so it works in a Squarespace code block, a Wix HTML embed, or a WordPress page with no plugin. Church sites maintained by volunteers especially benefit: nothing to update, no plugin to break.

Can we use this as a digital connect card?

Yes — that's the 'I'm new' path. Add optional fields for how they found you and whether they'd like someone to reach out. Many churches put a QR code on the physical bulletin pointing at the same form so Sunday visitors and website visitors land in one place.

Can submissions go to multiple staff members?

Yes — add BCC addresses in the dashboard, or webhook into a shared Slack / Planning Center workflow. Most churches send everything to the office admin plus the reason-specific lead (pastor for prayer, welcome-team lead for visitors).
