Google wants to give your church $10,000 a month in free advertising
Most churches leave $120,000 a year in free advertising on the table. The Google Ad Grant puts your church at the top of Google when families are searching for one. We handle everything. You keep doing ministry.
Takes 2 minutes. Zero obligation.

You didn't become a pastor to worry about marketing
But here's the reality: your church could have the best preaching, the warmest community, and the most life-changing ministry in your entire city.
If people don't know you exist, none of that matters.
Not to the family who just moved to town. Not to the single mom searching for hope. Not to the couple whose marriage is falling apart. They'll never walk through your doors if they can't find you.
Does this feel familiar?
You look out at the seats on Sunday and wonder why there aren't more new faces — not because you care about numbers, but because every empty seat is a family you haven't reached yet.
A family moves to your city and searches "churches near me." Your church doesn't show up. They close the tab, stay home, and never walk through anyone's doors.
You host events, print flyers, post on social media — and mostly reach people already sitting in your pews.
Your sermons could change someone's life. But the people who need them most have no idea your church exists.
You lie awake wondering: "How do we reach the people right outside our walls?"
Every single week, people in your city type "churches near me" into Google. If your church doesn't show up, they assume there isn't one nearby — and they stay home.
The Google Ad Grant puts your church at the top of those results — for free. $10,000 a month in advertising, paid for by Google, so the right people find you at the exact moment they're looking.
This is what it looks like when people can find you.
Every seat filled started with a search.
The simplest way to put your church in front of everyone searching for one
Google sets aside ad credits for qualifying nonprofits — and most churches qualify. If yours does, you get up to $10,000 every month to run ads on Google. That's $120,000 per year. Free.
When someone in your city searches "churches near me," "Bible study groups," "marriage counseling," or any of hundreds of other terms — your church appears at the top of Google. Right when they're looking for exactly what you offer.
It's not a loan. Not a trial. It renews every single month, as long as you follow Google's rules. And that's where we come in.
Imagine this:
Six months from now, you look out at your congregation and see faces you've never seen before — families who found your church on Google, who showed up because your ad appeared at exactly the right moment.
Someone searches "churches near me"
Your church appears at the top of Google

Google pays for the click — not you
They land on your website
Service times, directions, what to expect
They show up Sunday
A real person walks through your doors
This is what happens when the grant is managed right

Everything handled. Nothing for you to learn.
You don't need a marketing background. You don't need spare time. You don't need to learn Google's rules. We handle the application, campaigns, compliance, and reporting — so your team can focus on what actually matters.
Our team optimizes your campaigns weekly
We Get You Approved
Google for Nonprofits enrollment, domain verification, Ad Grant activation — we handle every step. Over 90% of the churches we work with get approved. If yours doesn't, you don't pay.
We Build & Run Your Campaigns
Our certified Google Ads specialists build custom campaigns to squeeze every dollar out of your $10,000/month budget. We don't set it and forget it — we optimize every single week.
We Target What Your City Is Searching
"Churches near me." "Youth group." "Bible study in [your city]." "Marriage counseling." We find the exact words your community types into Google — and put your church in front of them.
We Show You Exactly What's Working
Every month you get a clear report: how many people clicked, how many visited your site, what they searched for, and what it would have cost without the grant. No jargon. No guesswork.
We Keep You Compliant
Google has strict rules — minimum click-through rates, conversion tracking, bidding limits. Break one and your grant disappears. We monitor your account daily so that never happens.
We Write Ads That Sound Like You
Every ad is written to sound like your church — warm, inviting, authentic. Not like a marketing agency. Because the first impression someone has of your church shouldn't feel like a sales pitch.

We Optimize. You Minister.

Every month, you get a clear report showing exactly what's working
The #1 reason churches lose their grant
Google doesn't just hand you $10,000 and walk away. There are strict compliance requirements that must be met every single month. Miss one, and your grant gets suspended. No warning. No grace period.
We've watched it happen to dozens of churches. They get the grant, set up a few campaigns, and then life gets busy. A month goes by without optimization. Click-through rate drops below 5%. The grant disappears.
That's why 300+ churches trust us with their grant. We monitor compliance daily, optimize weekly, and maintain a 98% compliance rate across every account we manage.
Common DIY mistakes that kill grants:
Click-through rate drops below 5%
Grant suspended — no warning, no second chance
Running broad, irrelevant keywords
Budget wasted on people who will never visit
No conversion tracking installed
Google can't verify results — grant at risk
One ad group with generic copy
Quality score tanks, ads stop showing
Skipping monthly account check-ins
Account deactivated for non-compliance
Bidding above $2 without Smart Bidding
All ads paused immediately
Each of these mistakes can cost your church $120,000/year in free advertising
Don't take our word for it. Take theirs.
Real pastors. Real churches. Real numbers.

"46,982 more people saw our ads last month. 2,727 more people clicked on our ads last month. $7,471.91 more in grant money for ads last month. 946 more people converted. Not only are we getting so much more with the grant than before, but you're also saving us more than $300 per month!"
Michelle Rux
"We are starting to see some first time visitors over the last few weeks. Many coming from Google online searching! We used to get like 5 new people a month. In the last 3 weeks we have had nearly 30 new people! Thank you so much, please keep doing what you are doing!"
Ryan Keller
"We are consistently seeing first-time guests on Sundays, and when we ask "How did you find us?" the response is almost always, "We found you online." Over the years, we've tried a number of strategies — nothing has been as effective as this."

Still have questions? Good.
What's the catch? Why would Google give away free ads?
Does our church actually qualify?
How much is $10,000/month actually worth?
How long until we're up and running?
What if we lose the grant?
What can we advertise?
What if we don't have a website?
We already have the grant but it's not working. Can you help?
How is this different from paying for Google Ads?
Do you require a long-term contract?
The choice is simple
Every month you wait is $10,000
your church will never get back.
Right now, someone in your city is searching for a church. If yours doesn't show up, they'll assume there isn't one close by — and they'll spend another Sunday alone. You'll never know they were looking.
