News and alerts
News that finds them.
Pastors post to News, and members answer with Love, Praying, Amen or Celebrate. A post marked Important rings their phones, no more than three a day from the church, and quiet hours from 9 PM to 7 AM hold them until morning.
- Each member picks Important, Everything or Off, and turns each kind of note on or off
- Birthdays in their own groups, as one quiet note after 9 AM
- Members share good news, and a pastor reads it before it goes up
- Every comment is checked first, and the week's news can come by email on Saturday
Important: Fall retreat sign-ups close tonight. There are still beds left.
It's Denise's birthday today.

Two nights away together, November 6 to 8. Rides leave from the church at 5.
1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me.
One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after.
Before the phone, before the news, give the first minutes of today to the one thing that lasts.
The Bible
The Bible, with their own notes.
The King James and the World English Bible, with the books in order, Old Testament first. Members highlight in five colours, keep private notes and bookmarks, and search by a reference or a word. Their marks follow them to any phone, and no one on staff can read them.
- Devotionals your church writes, read together from a date or started on their own day
- Listen: each day read aloud in the voice the church picked
- A daily checklist and a private journal on every day
- Reading plans, with the verse and today's reading on Home
Watch and Live
Sunday, wherever they are.
When the team goes live, members watch right in the app, say "I'm here" and talk with each other in the chat. A prayer request goes privately to the pastor, never into the chat. Between services, Watch says when the next one is and offers last Sunday's message instead of a dead stream.
- Check in from Home: at church or watching online, the whole family in one tap
- Every message with its title, speaker and scripture, and each series as a poster
- A message page with its summary and the questions for small groups

Youth and Kids
Room for teens and the little ones.
Teens from 13 to 17 sign in themselves and land in Youth, with its own look and tabs. Children under 13 never sign in: they come in through a parent's Kids space. Leaders the office approves, with the date of their background check, switch between spaces.
- Youth leaders talk with teens in group chats only, never one to one
- Kids mode on a parent's phone: the week's Bible story read aloud, a memory verse game and a drawing pad, left by holding a button for three seconds

Posting
Post from your phone. Chief adds the sign-up.
Pastors, and the people the office picks, post to the whole church right from the member app, and anyone who leads a group or ministry posts to their own people. When the words ask people to sign up, Chief offers a Sign me up button from the event, so nobody has to call the office.
- Photos, an event, a sermon or a link on any post, every photo checked first
- Pin it for a week, choose comments, prayers only or off, and post now or Sunday at 7 AM
- A tap on Sign me up puts the member on the event's list, and the office sees each name
This mentions a sign-up. I can add a Sign me up button from the Fall Retreat event, so nobody has to call the office. Your words stay as you wrote them.
Chief works the same way in every room. It works from your church's own records, waits for your yes before it sends anything or touches money, and lists what it does on your History page.

The member app shares one list of people with every other part of your church.
