# How to change the language of my ChurchTool?

ChurchTools offers a variety of languages, which we expand from time to time. New languages that we make available will be automatically added to your ChurchTools with the next release.

**Note**

If the language you are looking for is not available in ChurchTools, you can create and maintain it yourself. We explain how to do this on the help page [How to add new languages to ChurchTools?](https://staging.churchtools.academy/en/help/administration/languages/how-do-i-add-new-languages-to-churchtools/)

You can use the *Help menu* (1) with the question mark in the menu bar to select the language in which you would like your ChurchTools to be displayed. Open the menu and select *Language* (2).

In the window that opens, you can select a *language* (3). After a short loading time, your ChurchTools will be displayed in this language.
