## What is Shepherd’s Hook?

Shepherd's Hook helps your church care for people on purpose — so no one quietly drifts away without anyone noticing.

It keeps one living list of everyone you're following up with. When someone hasn't been seen in a while, they rise to the top. Each person is assigned to a leader, and the app quietly tracks the calls and texts that actually happen — so your team knows who still needs a hand this week instead of guessing.

WHAT YOU GET

• A care list that updates itself — people who've been missing surface automatically.
• Follow-up that's shared — every leader sees who they're responsible for and what's already been tried.
• A gentle, step-by-step process for reaching out, pausing when someone's away, and closing the loop with dignity.
• Person profiles with the full history of care — every call, note, and milestone in one place.
• Weekly rhythm — a simple check-in so the whole team stays on the same page.

BUILT FOR THE WHOLE TEAM

Each church turns on only the parts it needs:

• Team Room — a private place for staff and leaders to talk, by ministry.
• Check-In — check people into services and events, including kids.
• Sermons — write and format messages, with a distraction-free Preaching mode.
• Expenses — snap a receipt, submit it, approve it, done.
• Serving — volunteer teams, schedules, and sign-ups.
• Tasks, Documents, and a shared Calendar.

WORKS THE WAY YOUR CHURCH DOES

• One login, many churches — serve on more than one team without signing out.
• Roles keep private things private — people only see what their role allows.
• Connects to Planning Center to bring your people and attendance in.
• Runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and keeps working when the signal doesn't.

Shepherd's Hook was built alongside a real church care team, for the people who make the calls nobody sees. If that's you — this is for you.
