WHAT DISTINGUISHES EKLIPSE CHURCH MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE FROM OTHERS?
The core competence of the potency and efficacy of eklipse church management software is in the study of the challenges still faced by so many churches across Africa who have management software but it doesn’t address some very intensive issues of the church. Eklipse believes that where there is a problem, an opportunity lies in there, thus the technical team carried out series of survey and questionnaire sampling with churches to find out how these issues can be addressed. Explained below are a few of the major challenges that we encountered and our solutions. We are very proud to say that the solutions we offer and approach to these challenges are second to none and first of its kind in Africa.

THE CHALLENGE
Many Christians in this dispensation and region of the world have issues with acclimatizing themselves to the accelerated change of ICT (Innovation, Creativity and Technology) tools. The trust mechanism of the efficacy of ICT tools and equipment has not been fully incorporated into the Christian religion making it very weak in Africa.
As we plunge into the next millennium, it is of great importance that every organization MUST accept this era of Accelerated Change, Overwhelming Complexity and Tremendous Competition thus the Church shouldn’t be left out. For the gospel of Christ to be rapidly propagated, some sections or operational models must be engrafted with new global standard tools.
E-Bible: The majority of African churches in this era still have efficacy-issues with the use of electronic bible. Some think “The e-bible’s power can be nullified when other non-Christian objects are on the phone?” others say “How powerful is the electronic bible compared to physical bible?”
David in the bible said “One thing that I desire is that I may dwell in the temple of the lord all the days of my life”. The prayer of David in the Old Testament has being answered in the New Testament because in 1st Corinthians chapter 6, Paul said “Know ye not that your bodies are the temple of God”. So David was tired that when he needed to see the beauty of God or inquiry about something from God then he has to stand up and find a temple that was why he said “I wish that I can just dwell in the temple all the days of my life”. Then God said if that was his prayer, he will answer it in a dispensation that is not his’.
Jesus stood in Jerusalem and he said “Bring down this temple and in 3days I will build it up again”. The bible said he was talking about his resurrected body, so when Jesus died for 3days the presence of the lord left the temple, and the cotton was torn from top to bottom, it was the lord making his way out and finding his dwelling inside your tabernacle.

EKLIPSEs SOLUTION
In the same manner, the power of the bible is not in the church, book, not in the paper but in the words in it.
The bible origin shows that it was first written in scrolls. Below is a picture a scroll bible.
To those who don’t believe in the efficacy of the electronic bible, the question is; those who read the bible in scrolls, didn’t they perform miracles also? If YES, then you will agree with eklipse that the power is in the word. The major reason why the bible had to be re-written was because of the key word “Convenience”. _
Convenience is the reason why the bible words had to be rewritten from the scrolls to the new book, so that people won’t have to be carrying the huge scrolls around every time they want to study, access, consume and make reference to the words for spiritual growth. _ The bible says “Let this book not depart from your lips, meditate on it day and night and let your delight be in it”.
To meditate means to carry out reflective practice while delight means to receive pleasure from. For a Christian to have his/her delight in the word of God then meditation on it must be consistent over a period of time hence the need for the word to be in a mode that is easily accessible (Convenience).
In an age where almost every written word has to be in a softcopy or it will be phased out. Christians has also moved with the trend of ICT in other aspects of their life. Some 15years back most people have a touch light, radio, music player, game console, calculator, calendar, clock, text books(educational, spiritual, motivational), video player, photo album, etc. With the effect of technology a global standard harmony was created for individual to perform better using an easy mode thus in this current age you have a device (SMART PHONE, TABLET or LAPTOP) that can do all of this with so much convenience. Now if Christians will accept to read information about the gospel online, make references to messages of other Gospel leaders outside their locality, listen to audio messages, watch videos of bible teaching to help their spiritual growth and development on the same platform were immoralities can also be found, why will they have efficacy issues with the platform?. The fact that you are in Nigeria searching on Google for instance on how to grow spiritually or how to increase your faith and someone somewhere around world is also on Google searching for sexual images doesn’t reduce the efficacy of the message you reading or watching.

GROUND-BREAKING FEATURES OF THE CHURCH MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE
Eklipse church management software is edged on #3 major strongholds which are;
Dissemination of the word of God on a very High Standard
Harmonizes the Church’s operational activities
High Church Security Levels

WORD DISSEMINATION
Eklipse consults observed that there is an urgent need to improve the models of the distribution of the word of God. What is obtainable now in Nigeria is that people come to church, listen to the word of God and then go back home. Some churches thrive so much as to engage their members assisting them grow spiritually by recording the message/sermon into audio compact Dick (cd) and video compact disk (vcd) so that both members who want to refer back to the message in church for personal spiritual development and members who also missed the service.
THE CHALLENGE
A member of the church buying the Cd either the video or audio makes the sale of this message a source of financial revenue for the church. The efficacy of this system can now be said to be poor because, almost no member of the church can provide all the cd messages he/she has bought form the church for the last 1year. Eklipse consults carried out a survey in Winners Chapel and House on the Rock Church and the results shows that those who buy the messages in Cds basically just listen to it a few times in their car, on a player, or ultimately dub the file into their system archive. This shows that this mode is actually no longer as viable as perceived and is also more expensive for the church having to buy empty disc, and writing the files in them.
Eklipse consults based on the survey carried out in Enugu also found out that there is no alternative, flexible mode for a church to spread the gospel and follow up. For instance, let’s say Rita travelled from Lagos, Nigeria to Abuja, Nigeria for a period of months probably for a vacation or for personal reasons. While in Abuja, she attended a church, the Pastor or Minister connected so closely to Rita’s spiritual life with his sermon or ministration, over the period Rita was in Abuja attending this church, her spiritual life was improved significantly which brought her closer to God. Now 6months is over and Rita is to leave Abuja back to Lagos, the sad news is that the church has no platform to keep this close relationship with Rita to make sure that her relationship with God is not only maintained but also improved. In many cases like that of Rita, there is also spiritual loss in connection or declination in the growth of the individual.
And lots more,continue in commend below

EKLIPSEs SOLUTION
Eklipse ground breaking church management solution is not just web-based software but global standard software that not only harmonizes operational activities in the church down to each group or society in church. The software offers solution to not only the challenges listed above but also beyond such as;
Flexibility- Eklipse consults church management software secret of its global acceptance is basically because of its flexibility saying “If you can’t go to the church, the church can come to you”. Our software has a platform whereby church members who are probably not in a location easily accessible to the church can always log on to the software and click on “Go to church”. The church service will be streamed life via the software. For example 500 people could be seated physically in church while 300 persons are also logged on watching the service life via their mobile device or computer regardless of their location. Those logged on online can link up their master card with the software which is directly connected to the church’s accounts details. So when the service gets to tithes, offering, sacrificial giving, thanksgiving, covenant seed etc. The online members will just input the amount they want to pay or pledge which goes directly into the church account.
Profitability- In the same manner, immediately the service ends in the physical church, the online members service also comes to an end but the good news is that once a church members wants to re-visit, replay, the message or service, he/she will have to pay online to have the service file mailed directly into his/her mail or on the archive on the software. In this way, the church makes income for each sale of the file online to both those who attended online or physically who wishes to have the service file for reference purposes. This ground breaking features of eklipse church management software is a global standard feature that separate eklipse consults church management software from every other software making our software the most profitable, global standard.
CHURCH SECURITY
Eklipse consults church management software upon interest of the said church also has the capacity to secure your church with global standard ICT tools.
THE CHALLENGE:
A good number of churches in Nigeria and Africa at large conduct more than one service, some church even send messages to all of their members on the day before that there would be two services 8pm and 10pm for instance adding up flexibility to the dissemination of the word of God so that those who are unavoidably absent for the first service can still partake in that of the second. This poses a new treat so some churches now for example, a church in Port Harcourt, Nigeria finished their first service on a fateful Sunday. Just before the commencement of the second service, there is always crowd from members who are leaving for the first service and those who are just coming for the second, those who have to pick up their kids from the Sunday school and leave, and those who are just coming with their kids for the second service with their kids. In the process of this rowdiness, two kids were kidnapped by unknown men who just walked in to the church at this highly porous time, picked up the kids and went away with them and nobody could identify this even the church Ushers or Stewards, not every steward can identify a parent to his/her child and vice versa.

EKLIPSEs SOLUTION:
Eklipse technical team is proud to be ahead of the global community with the innovation of a “Smart Wrist RFID Band”. Similar to that used in the school management system the smart wrist band uses the radio frequency identity technology to locate, identify and track a child’s movement in church. It is also highly secured with a metal finishing on the sides making it almost impossible to destroy. When a parent comes to church for instance with his/her child who is required to go to the Sunday school class, assigned person will be required to administer the Smart band on the wrist of the child and also give the parent the device for that particular smart band. The smart wrist band has in it, a gps tracking device and a radio frequency chip so once child leaves the perimeter range that has been programmed, and the parents’ device begins to vibrate. Once a Parent notice the vibration, he/she is required to go and locate his/her child and if not found, the parent visits the church’s media or technical team who then tracks the child via the smart band on the software and furthermore, the parent has to touch the smart wrist band with his/her device to unlock the band. This means that once the child is kidnapped or missing, as long as that band remains on the wrist of the child which will almost be impossible to destroy even if the kidnapper is aware (very rare) because he/she will have to cut the child’s wrist, the child will definitely be tracked via gps on the software. Also nobody can claim to be the parent of a child if he/she cannot unlock the smart wrist band of the child’s wrist.

NOTE:
All the features, modules listed above can be modified based on your church need and capacity and if the need arises for special features for your church on demand the technical team can always deliver. Features of eklipse church management software will be upgraded as new versions are unveiled to keep your church up to date with global standard tools for better operation and dynamic system integration and harmony.

FINANCIAL IMPLICATION:
As part of our mission to not only bring to your church the best church management software available with the most advanced technology and tools we also found out that a large percentage of churches having a management system spend huge amount of money on acquiring this software and also spend more on the management of this software so we are happy to give you the financial breakdown that is second to none.

Yes, you read that right, we would be giving out all of this to XYZ Church for free. We believe that keeping a very close relationship with your church after installing would help us serve you better. As new tools, creativity and innovations unveils for the software, we would also be giving your church for free.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
In our quest to create a platform that both parties have equal amount to earn from, and to kick away traditional modes of selling in which a seller of a product/service is only interested in completing a sale to a prospect and there is little or no platform for a buyer to give comments (after-sales) after paying for the said product or service, we decided to establish a very fair ground for both parties.
For all the listed items on the chart above to be installed in your church for free but your church will have to sign an agreement to pay a monthly fee we call “MANAGEMENT FEES”. Our system is not a rigid system with a fixed price but we believe if we help your church get what you need at every point then we also get what we want. As much as this software is for your church’s improvement and upgrade, the purpose of every church is also to serve God and save members leading them through the right routes and patterns Christ outlined.
BREAK-DOWN
The calculation for the “Management fees” is basically on the capacity of your church.
If the total number of members in your church falls between;
100 - 200 members’ management fee is pegged at N500 per member once in 2months.
250 – 500 members’ management fee is pegged at N300 per member once in 2months.
600 – Above members’ management fee is pegged at N200 per member once in 2months.
Mind can’t phantom the effectiveness of the software and the huge revenue this software will bring to your church. Imagine keeping a close relationship with every member that has attended your service or ministration, imagine still praying for them and helping them grow spiritually daily, weekly, monthly without having to worry about location limitations, imagine keeping a very strong relationship with them even if they never physically attend your church anymore due to personal reasons, and imagine those in the diaspora still tunes to your services, still paying their tithes, contributions, sacrificial giving to your church religiously.

In case of any complain after installation please call the consultant who visited your church, he/she would contact the technical team who will either work on it online from the technical office or if need be visit your church to address the issue for FREE also.
Upon agreement of this proposal please contact the consultant also, issue an acceptance letter to him/her so the installation process can begin and you will immediately be contacted by the technical team via your mail requesting how your administration process is carried out, soft copy of church logo, because the application icon that would be up on play-store and apple store would be your church logo and some other technicalities.
The only cost on the church administration is the cost of any hardware that would be used such as Smart wrist bands, RFID readers, NFC UHF reader, and finger-print readers etc.
