NO ONE SLIPS THROUGH THE CRACKS. It starts quietly. A missed week. Then two. Life gets busy, and it's easy for someone to fall out of touch before anyone notices. Flock helps your group notice early and reach out with care. Whether you lead a small group or you're a member who wants to stay connected, Flock keeps your community together through prayer, conversation, and care, with attendance insights that help leaders follow up while reconnecting is still easy. PRAY TOGETHER, NOT ALONE Share prayer requests with your group. See who's praying with you. Celebrate when prayers are answered. Leaders can keep sensitive requests private — because some burdens aren't meant for everyone. KNOW HOW YOUR GROUP IS REALLY DOING The intelligent health ring shows your group's pulse at a glance. Mark attendance in seconds. See who's engaged and who might need a check-in, with suggested ways to reach out. TALK LIKE A GROUP THAT ACTUALLY KNOWS EACH OTHER Group chat with emoji reactions, photo sharing, and Bible verse lookup. Create focused channels for subgroups. Send direct messages. Pin what matters. COORDINATE WITHOUT THE GROUP TEXT Sign-up sheets for potlucks, breakfast rotations, volunteer lists — anything the group needs. One tap to claim a spot. Automatic reminders when you're up next. LET EVERYONE WEIGH IN Polls for meeting times, study topics, or anything else. Show names or keep votes private. Timed or indefinite. Results hidden until voting closes so early votes don't sway the outcome. GATHER YOUR GROUP Create events with RSVP tracking and reminders. Post announcements with attachments and comments. Pin what matters most. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE No training. No learning curve. If you can text, you can use Flock. Designed for one-handed use — because real life happens while you're holding a coffee or a kid. Group members use Flock free. Churches and larger organizations can learn more at flock.church.
