When someone needs help, rally your church

Care Circles

Meals, visits, rides and help at home — coordinated on one shared calendar.

When a family faces surgery, a new baby, illness or loss, set up a Care Circle in minutes. Share one link and anyone — church members, neighbors, coworkers — can pick an open day without creating an account. No double-booking, and you approve visits when that matters.

No account or login needed

Friends outside the church sign up from their phone with just a name and email, so nobody gets turned away by another login.

Everyone sees the same calendar

Open, pending and filled days are clear at a glance, so two families never bring dinner on the same night.

You stay in control

Choose which kinds of help need a coordinator’s OK, and keep the address private until someone is confirmed.

Set it up in one step.

Name the circle, pick the kinds of help you need, and choose the dates — a date range plus days of the week, skipping any you don’t need. Start from Meals, Visits, House cleaning, Rides, Errands or your own.

  • Several kinds of help in one circle
  • Rename the starter help types or add your own
  • Set how many people each day needs
  • Add notes like allergies or drop-off instructions

Visits that respect someone’s recovery.

Limit visits to one person a day inside the time windows you choose, like 45 minutes between 10 AM–noon or 2–4 PM. Once someone picks a time, the other times for that day disappear.

  • Set visit length and daily time windows
  • One visitor a day, or as many as you allow
  • Times are hidden as soon as a request comes in
  • Declined requests open the day back up

Pending

Approve the requests that need a closer look.

Visits and any other help type you choose wait in Approvals for a coordinator. Approve or decline with a note, and the helper gets an email either way.

  • Open sign-up or coordinator approval for each help type
  • Coordinators get an email when someone signs up
  • Approve or decline in one tap
  • Helpers hear back automatically

  • Address shown only to confirmed helpers
  • Add-to-calendar download for every confirmed sign-up
  • Helpers can cancel and the spot opens for someone else
  • Share by link or QR code in a bulletin, email or text
