The problem
It's rarely a growth problem. It's a discovery problem and a follow-up problem.
People in your community can't find you online — and the ones who do visit often aren't followed up with. You're not short on calling. You're short on hands. Starheart is the hands: a managed online ministry growth and operations service, run for you every week.
How it works
Found. Welcomed. Remembered.
2. Welcomed
Every visitor gets a warm, opt-in next step: a timely welcome and a clear path back.
3. Remembered
Weekly content and follow-up keep your people connected between Sundays.
What we run for you
Six parts of one system
Growth & Acquisition
Google Ads and Google Ad Grant application and monthly management, run to Google's rules.
Online Presence
Your website, Google Business Profile and local listings — rebuilt, current and cared for.
Engagement & Retention
Opt-in visitor follow-up, next-step journeys, and email and text touches that keep people connected.
Media & Content
One weekly message becomes a podcast episode, short clips, social posts and newsletter copy — approved by you before anything goes out.
Events & Outreach
Promotion, registration, replay and follow-up for your events. In development — we'll offer it when it's proven, not before.
Technology & Operations
One plain-English monthly report — searches, visits, new contacts, return visits — plus giving and tool integrations. In development.
The part other agencies skip
No one you reach gets forgotten.
Ads can bring a visitor once. Follow-up is what brings them back. Starheart builds the whole loop: every first-time guest gets a timely, pastor-approved welcome and a next step, and every person you reach keeps hearing from you. We don't just create communications — we help make sure the people you reach aren't forgotten.
Free Google ads
Up to $10,000/month in free Google search ads — honestly explained.
Eligible nonprofits, churches included, can receive up to $10,000/month in free Google search ads through the Google Ad Grant. Most small organizations use part of it; approval is Google's, never guaranteed. We check whether you qualify — free, before you pay anything — apply with you, and run the account to Google's monthly compliance rules.
Check your eligibility, freeOur promise
You own everything.
Every account, login and file stays in your organization's name. We just run them. If you ever leave, everything goes with you — no hostage websites, no lost pages.
Multilingual ministry
Reach your neighbors in their language.
Spanish first, with more languages coming. A native speaker checks everything, scripture comes from trusted translations, and you see the English version beside it before anything is published. Multilingual add-on: $129 per language, per month.
Plans
Simple monthly plans. No surprises.

Full Service
$449/mo
Everything in Found & Followed, plus weekly media and content produced from your message, with your approval.
Ad Grants module (add-on): free eligibility pre-screen · setup $995, waived on a 12-month commitment · $299/mo added to any plan, or $397/mo standalone. Three lines always stay separate: our fee, your own ad budget (only if you choose paid ads), and Google's grant credit — which is Google's money, never ours.

Questions
Fair questions, straight answers
Do we have to change how we record?
No. A simple recording works. Send us a link and we handle the rest.
Will the grant definitely be approved?
No one can promise that — approval is Google's decision. That's why the eligibility pre-screen is free and comes before any payment.
Who owns our accounts and website?
You do. Everything is created in your organization's name; we manage it on your behalf.
Can we cancel?
Plans are month to month unless you choose a 12-month commitment for the setup waiver. You can cancel in writing at any time.
Let's make sure no one gets forgotten.
Start with the free eligibility check, or a free sample week. Either way, you'll know exactly where you stand before you spend anything.
