FORMATIONLY FOR CHURCHES

Your Church.
Your Teens.
Formationly Leads.

Add a powerful new dimension to your existing youth ministry without replacing the Bible studies and discipleship tools you already use. Formationly Live is a centrally delivered, interactive biblical formation experience featuring cinematic stories, Teen Pulse, and Scripture-centered teaching led by Formationly's founder or designated staff.

We Lead the Session. You Support Your Teens.

Your church doesn't need to prepare Formationly lessons, teach the session, or operate the Conductor's Leader Console. Your ministry continues building relationships and supporting teenagers in their spiritual growth.

60 Minutes Formationly-led live teaching in a guided weekly experience
4 Weeks Awareness, Interruption, Identity, and Action
One Mission Helping teens make intentional, Scripture-informed decisions
A FORMATIONLY-LED EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR CHURCH

Your Ministry, Strengthened.
Not Replaced.

Formationly Live complements the Bible studies, small groups, and youth ministry resources your church already uses. Rather than asking your team to teach another curriculum, Formationly's founder or designated teaching staff delivers the guided biblical formation experience. Your teenagers participate alongside their existing church community.

$500 Annual Church Partnership

The annual church partnership provides access to Formationly's centrally delivered Live program, subject to the applicable enrollment and licensing terms. It is not a license for churches to independently teach or reproduce Formationly sessions.

Optional Church Store Pathway

Churches with limited budgets may explore a separate merchandise-supported funding arrangement. Any such participation is governed by additional terms addressing revenue, costs, shortfalls, refunds, and other financial responsibilities.

HOW CHURCH ENROLLMENT WORKS

Three Ways to Join.
One Relationship-Centered Partnership.

Every church begins with a conversation. Church leaders meet with Formationly in person or over Zoom to learn how the partnership works, choose the best funding path, and review the Church Store opportunity if desired. No church is turned away simply because it cannot pay the full annual fee upfront.

How the Three Options Work

Pay in Full

$500
Higher share immediately

Your church pays the annual fee upfront and qualifies for the higher Church Store revenue share from the beginning of its partnership year.

Store Funded

$0
No upfront license payment

Your church enrolls without an upfront license payment. After approved monthly operating costs are satisfied, the agreed portion of qualifying Church Store proceeds helps fund the $500 annual fee.

Combination

$200
Example upfront contribution

Your church contributes part of the $500 fee upfront. In this example, the Church Store fundraising component works toward the remaining $300.

Illustrative Funding Timeline

Example: Your church begins its annual partnership in January and fully funds the $500 fee by the end of March.

Jan–Mar Funding phase
Apr–Jun Higher share
Jul–Sep Higher share
Oct–Dec Higher share
This is an illustration, not a projected sales result. Actual proceeds depend on merchandise sales, approved operating expenses, and the written agreement. Once the annual fee is satisfied, the higher church share applies to qualifying proceeds for the remainder of that partnership year. The funding cycle resets at annual renewal.

Enrollment in Four Steps

01

Meet With Formationly

Meet with Formationly leadership in person or over Zoom to review program responsibilities, funding options, and revenue-sharing terms. No proof of financial capacity is required to request a meeting.

02

Choose Your Funding Path

Pay the annual fee in full, use the Church Store fundraising pathway, or combine a direct contribution with store funding. Review and accept the applicable written partnership agreement.

03

Activate Your Partnership

Following approval and enrollment activation, your teens can begin participating without waiting for the Church Store to raise $500. Formationly delivers the Live teaching.

04

Grow Together

Qualifying store proceeds help fund the annual fee under the agreed allocation model. Once the fee is satisfied, your church qualifies for the higher share for the remainder of its partnership year.

No Church Left Behind Because of Its Budget

Churches unable to pay upfront may participate through the Church Store pathway, subject to the partnership agreement and program requirements. Once activated, a church retains access throughout its approved annual term even if fundraising falls short. There is no unexpected bill for that year's funding gap. Renewal requires a new annual funding arrangement.

A Partnership That Begins With a Conversation

Every church meets with Formationly leadership in person or over Zoom before receiving the specific revenue-sharing percentages. The meeting is about building relationships and explaining the partnership, not requiring a church to prove it can pay. Financial terms are confirmed in the written agreement.

Consultation scheduling will be available through a verified booking process. Revenue-sharing percentages are shared during the consultation, not published on this page. Store operating costs, proceeds allocation, and renewal conditions are established in the applicable written agreement.
FORMATIONLY CHURCH STORE PARTNERSHIP

Start the Ministry.
Build the Funding. Share in the Growth.

We believe a church's budget should never be the barrier that keeps teenagers from biblical formation. Our Church Store Partnership combines Formationly apparel, church-branded merchandise, and a shared-benefit model that helps support the annual Formationly Live partnership.

NO CHURCH LEFT BEHIND BECAUSE OF ITS BUDGET

Begin Now. Fund the Partnership Through the Year.

Churches unable to pay the $500 annual partnership upfront can join through the Church Store pathway without an upfront license payment. Following the partnership consultation, acceptance of the applicable agreement, and enrollment activation, Formationly delivers Live teaching while the Church Store creates opportunities to fund the annual fee.

$500 Annual church partnership No upfront license payment required through the Church Store pathway
How Church Store Funding Works
Apparel Sales

Formationly merchandise and participating church-branded apparel generate store revenue.

Operating Costs First

Each month, the agreed production, fulfillment, payment processing, refunds, and other approved overhead are accounted for.

Share and Fund

Qualifying net proceeds are allocated under the agreed revenue-sharing formula, including amounts designated toward the $500 annual fee.

Specific revenue-sharing percentages and allocation rules are explained in the required Formationly consultation and confirmed in the written agreement.
MORE REWARD AFTER THE FUNDING GOAL

Reach the Goal Earlier. Enjoy the Higher Share Longer.

For example, if your church fully funds its $500 annual fee by the end of March, the higher revenue-sharing percentage applies to qualifying proceeds for the remaining months of that partnership year.

Pay the full $500 upfront? Your church qualifies for the higher share from the beginning of its partnership term.

Jan–Mar Funding phase
Apr–Jun Higher share
Jul–Sep Higher share
Oct–Dec Higher share
THREE WAYS TO FUND YOUR PARTNERSHIP

Choose the Path That Fits Your Church.

OPTION 01 · PAY IN FULL

$500 Upfront

Pay the annual fee directly and qualify immediately for the higher Church Store revenue share when participating in the store program.

OPTION 03 · COMBINATION

Contribute Part. Fund the Rest.

For example, contribute $200 directly and apply designated Church Store proceeds toward the remaining $300. Reach the full $500 target to qualify for the higher share.

OUR PARTNERSHIP COMMITMENT

Your Teenagers Are Not the Fundraising Deadline.

Once your church is approved and activated, it retains Formationly Live access for its full annual partnership term. If merchandise proceeds do not satisfy the annual fee, Formationly will not terminate access because of that shortfall or send an unexpected bill for the difference.

At renewal, a new annual funding arrangement is agreed upon. The $500 annual funding cycle starts again for the new term.
A PARTNERSHIP THAT BEGINS WITH A CONVERSATION

Meet With Formationly. Build the Relationship.

Church representatives meet with Formationly leadership in person or through Zoom. During that conversation, we explain the Church Store operating model, the revenue-sharing percentages before and after the fee is funded, and the annual renewal process.

No proof of ability to pay is required to request a partnership consultation. Specific percentages are shared privately and established in the signed agreement.
YOUR CHURCH · YOUR TEENS · FORMATIONLY LIVE

More Than Fundraising. A Partnership Built to Grow.

Formationly delivers the Live teaching, your church supports its teenagers, and the Church Store provides an opportunity to share in the value created by coordinated merchandise sales.

Review Partnership & Consultation Steps →
Participation requires an approved church partnership agreement. Merchandise sales and funding outcomes are not guaranteed. Revenue shares are calculated from qualifying proceeds after agreed operating costs. The increased share begins when the annual fee is satisfied under the written agreement and applies for the remaining partnership term. A new funding cycle begins at renewal. This page does not process enrollment or schedule consultations.
QUESTIONS CHURCH LEADERS ASK

Clear Answers.
A Partnership Built on Trust.

We want every church to understand Formationly Live, the Church Store opportunity, and its annual partnership before making a commitment. Explore these common questions, then meet with Formationly leadership to discuss your church's needs.

FORMATIONLY LIVE & YOUR CHURCH
Who actually teaches Formationly Live?

Formationly does. Every Formationly Live session is taught and conducted by Formationly's founder or designated Formationly teaching staff. Our authorized Conductor operates the Leader Console, presentation, and Teen Pulse.

Your church does not need to teach Formationly lessons, operate the teaching platform, or prepare a separate curriculum.

Does Formationly replace our existing youth Bible studies?

No. Formationly Live complements your church's existing Bible studies, small groups, youth activities, mentoring, and discipleship.

Your church continues leading its own ministry while Formationly provides an additional, centrally delivered experience.

How do our teenagers participate?

Teenagers can join Formationly-led Live sessions with their church group or from home. Sessions combine cinematic stories, Scripture-centered teaching, and interactive Teen Pulse moments.

Teen Pulse does not require an individual account or email address. Zoom cameras are optional, microphones remain muted, and public chat is disabled for the guided experience. Group results are used only when participation safeguards permit.

FUNDING & CHURCH STORE
What does the annual partnership cost?

Formationly Live has a $500 annual church partnership fee. Churches can pay it upfront, use the approved Church Store fundraising pathway, or combine a direct contribution with qualifying store proceeds.

The partnership provides access to Formationly-delivered sessions, not permission to independently teach or reproduce Formationly Live.

What if our church cannot afford to pay upfront?

Financial hardship alone will not turn your church away. The Church Store pathway was designed to let participating churches enroll without an upfront license payment.

You'll meet with Formationly, review the program, and complete the applicable agreement. Once enrollment is approved and activated, your teens can begin participating without waiting for merchandise proceeds to reach the annual funding target.

How does the Church Store help fund our annual fee?

The store features Formationly apparel alongside participating church-branded merchandise. Each month, agreed operating costs are accounted for first, including production, fulfillment, transaction fees, refunds, and approved overhead.

Qualifying net proceeds are then allocated under the agreed revenue-sharing model, including the designated portion applied toward the church's $500 annual partnership fee.

When does our church receive a higher percentage of proceeds?

If your church pays the full $500 fee upfront and participates in the Church Store, it qualifies for the higher church revenue share from the beginning of its annual partnership.

If your church uses store fundraising or a combination, the higher share begins once the entire annual fee has been satisfied under the agreement. It continues for the remainder of that partnership year.

Why aren't the exact revenue-sharing percentages listed publicly?

We want to build a genuine relationship with every participating church. Specific revenue-sharing percentages are discussed during a required meeting with Formationly leadership, either in person or over Zoom.

The discussion covers the store's operating expenses, financial allocations, funding thresholds, and each party's obligations. Final terms are documented in the written agreement. You do not need to prove your ability to pay to request a consultation.

ANNUAL COMMITMENT & RENEWAL
What happens if our Church Store doesn't raise the full $500?

Your teenagers keep their access for the full approved annual partnership term. Formationly will not interrupt that year's Live access simply because the store didn't meet its fundraising target.

Your church will not receive an unexpected bill for the remaining funding gap from that partnership year. Renewal is addressed separately before the next annual term.

What happens when our annual partnership renews?

Each new partnership year begins a new annual $500 funding cycle. Your church can pay in full, contribute an agreed amount and fund the remainder through its Church Store, or enter another approved funding arrangement.

The increased revenue-sharing percentage for the new term applies once that term's annual fee is satisfied. New renewal terms are agreed upon before participation in the following year. Any treatment of surplus proceeds is governed by the written agreement.

Once You're Part of the Formationly Family, We're Committed to the Journey.

Fundraising progress should never become a deadline that threatens teenagers' participation. An approved church's annual access remains in place even when store proceeds fall short. Our goal is to build lasting partnerships, not simply complete transactions.

Still Have Questions? Let's Talk.

Meet with Formationly leadership in person or over Zoom to explore the program, discuss your church's funding options, and review the private Church Store revenue-sharing terms. Financial qualification is not required to request a meeting.

Participation is subject to the applicable partnership agreement and enrollment requirements. Actual merchandise sales are not guaranteed. Revenue-sharing percentages, qualifying proceeds, expenses, and renewal conditions are established in the written Church Store agreement. These informational links do not schedule a consultation or process enrollment.
LET'S BUILD SOMETHING MEANINGFUL TOGETHER

Your Church. Your Teens.
Formationly Leads the Experience.

You already have a ministry, leaders who care, and teenagers worth investing in. Formationly Live complements that existing foundation with engaging cinematic stories, interactive Teen Pulse moments, and Scripture-centered teaching delivered by Formationly's founder or designated teaching staff. Your church supports its teenagers. Formationly conducts the Live experience.

Formationly Leads the Teaching

We conduct the guided 60-minute Live sessions and manage Teen Pulse.

Three Flexible Funding Choices

Pay upfront, fund through your Church Store, or combine both approaches.

Your Annual Access Is Protected

Fundraising shortfalls do not interrupt an approved church's current annual term.

YOUR FIRST STEP

Every Great Partnership Begins With a Conversation.

Meet directly with Formationly leadership in person or over Zoom. We'll explain how Formationly Live works, answer your questions, and help you understand the three annual funding options. Churches interested in the Church Store program will also review the private revenue-sharing structure and the annual renewal process.

No financial qualification required. Your church will never be required to prove it can afford the partnership simply to request a meeting.

What We'll Discuss Together
01 Your ministry's goals and teenagers' needs.
02 Formationly-led Live sessions and the four-week journey.
03 The $500 partnership and available funding options.
04 Church Store expenses, private revenue-sharing percentages, and increased-share opportunities.
05 Activation, participation, and annual renewal expectations.
Consultations are available in person or through Zoom. The applicable financial terms are explained before agreement and confirmed in writing.
Once You're Part of the Formationly Family,
We're Committed to the Journey.

We believe ministry partnerships are built on trust, shared purpose, and keeping our commitments. No church is excluded solely because it cannot pay the annual partnership fee upfront. Once an approved church's partnership is activated, a Church Store fundraising shortfall will not interrupt its teenagers' participation during that annual term.

Church enrollment and access are subject to the applicable Formationly participation agreement. Revenue-sharing percentages are explained privately during the required consultation and confirmed in writing. Merchandise sales are not guaranteed. A new annual funding arrangement is established at renewal. These buttons provide informational navigation and do not schedule a meeting or process enrollment.
