Getting Started with Zita

Setting up Zita for your church happens in three stages. Each stage has its own guide below — find the one that matches where you are.

1. Set Up (once, by your Super Admin) Create your church, build your first guild and role structure, and generate your service calendar. Takes about 10–15 minutes.

2. Configure & Invite (ongoing, by Admins) Review the service calendar, fine-tune guilds and roles, and add your members. Once everyone’s added, ask your Super Admin to send their invitations so your team can sign in.

3. Use Zita (every week, by Guild Leads & Members) Once invited, guild leads build the schedule and members manage their own availability — no admin access needed.

Not sure which guide is yours? If you’re setting up Zita for the first time, start with the Setup Guide. If your church is already up and running and you’re managing it, use the Administration Guide. If you’ve just received an invitation email, jump straight to the Guild Lead & Member Guide.
