Compliance forms, simplified
CFE helps denominational headquarters create, distribute, and track compliance forms across affiliated churches — with automated reminders, e-signatures, and real-time reporting.
Up to 5 users, no credit card required. See your real compliance data before spending a dollar.
Paper forms vanish in filing cabinets.
Who's behind CFE
35+ years in ministry, ordained as an Elder. CFE's founder has spent over three decades inside the church, not just around it, so the compliance headaches this platform solves were lived firsthand.
20+ years running church administration. Before CFE existed, he was the one tracking background checks, policy acknowledgments, and deadlines by hand, spreadsheet, and prayer, so he built the tool he wished he'd had.
20+ years in software development and technology instruction. The same hands-on technical background that makes CFE actually work, not just look good in a demo.
Founder of The Church Tech Club. A community that helps churches plan and use technology with confidence instead of overwhelm. CFE is built with that same philosophy: technology should support ministry, never complicate it.
Compliance without a system is a liability
This isn't a nice-to-have. When compliance breaks down, it costs you time, money, clarity, and the trust your church has spent years earning.
Time
Hours you'll never get back.
Chasing down paper forms, sending the same reminder email for the third time, and manually cross-checking who's actually compliant. That's staff time spent hunting for information instead of serving the church.
Money
Real dollars at risk, not hypothetical ones.
A denomination that can't prove compliance during an audit or investigation faces legal exposure and, in the worst cases, the loss of its tax-exempt status. That's not a fine, that's the whole mission at risk.
Clarity
You can't protect what you can't see.
Without a single source of truth, denomination leadership has no real answer to "are we compliant right now?" until something has already gone wrong.
Reputation
Trust, once lost, doesn't come back easily.
A mishandled background check or a missed policy acknowledgment isn't just paperwork. It's the kind of story that follows a denomination for years.
The bottom line is: a system isn't overhead. It's the thing standing between your denomination and its worst day.
Everything your denomination needs
One platform to build, assign, collect, and report on compliance forms across your entire church network.
Centralized compliance tracking
Create forms once, assign to affiliated churches, and track completion across your entire network in real time.
Role-based access control
Denomination admins manage the hierarchy. Church admins manage their congregation. Every user sees only what they should.
Automated notifications
Deadline reminders sent automatically at 30, 7, and 1 day intervals so nothing falls through the cracks.
Compliance dashboards
Instant visibility into submission rates, overdue forms, and compliance trends across all affiliated entities.
Up and running in minutes
No implementation fees. No lengthy onboarding. CFE is designed to work the way your denomination already thinks.
Denomination creates forms
Build compliance forms with a drag-and-drop builder. Add signatures, file uploads, conditional logic, and due dates.
Assign to affiliated churches
Push forms to one church, a group, or your entire network in seconds. Each church sees only what is assigned to them.
Track, remind, and report
CFE sends automatic deadline reminders and updates your compliance dashboard the moment a form is submitted.

Jonathan Lonon
Founder, Compliance Forms Engine. Ordained minister, 35+ years in ministry, 20+ years building church technology.
Built by a church administrator, not just a software company
CFE is built by The Church Tech Club (TCTC), the church-focused division of Lonon Services and Consulting, LLC (LSC), a technology consulting firm founded and led by Jonathan Lonon. Before technology, Jonathan spent decades in ministry and church administration, so this platform was shaped by someone who has personally lived the compliance headaches it solves, not a generic project template.
That is why CFE exists: technology should work like a quiet, dependable deacon, supporting ministry, never overshadowing it. Pricing here reflects real operational costs, not vendor incentives or growth targets, because the mission is to keep technology from ever becoming a barrier to ministry.
