Study guides, events, announcements, group chat, attendance — one app for the whole operation, instead of five tools that don't talk to each other.

EVERYTHING A MINISTRY RUNS ON

Events. Plan the weekly study and the all-ministry gathering in the same place. RSVPs come in, attendance gets marked, and a recurring series keeps going until you change it.

Messaging. Group chats and DMs, organized by group. Nobody has to mute a 200-person thread.

Announcements. Send it to every leader, one group, or the whole ministry. It arrives as a push notification, so it doesn't wait for someone to scroll.

Study guides and resources. One organized library for your content. Your leaders find this week's guide without texting you to ask where it lives.

People and groups. Rosters and roles, plus QR join codes that get a new student into the right group in under a minute.

THE PART NOTHING ELSE DOES

Your leaders see their own groups up close. You see all of them from a distance, and that's where things slip. Trellis watches for a student who stopped showing up, a group that's stopped meeting, a leader who skipped their debrief, and a hand quietly raised.

It puts those concerns — ranked, with context — in an inbox only leadership sees. Reach out, snooze, or let it resolve. Caring was never the problem. Seeing it in time is.

CARE FOR THE PEOPLE, NOT THE PAPERWORK

After each study, a leader spends two minutes on a debrief: mood, prayer requests, who needs follow-up. Attendance is the least of it. Every few weeks, Trellis asks leaders how their own hearts are — the people caring for everyone need care too. And with one tap, anyone can flag that they need to talk, no explanation required.

WHO IT'S FOR

Campus ministries and church ministries running small groups. Directors, staff, student leaders, and the students themselves — each one sees the part that's theirs.

ABOUT THE COST

Trellis has a free plan and a paid plan, and they're the same plan. Same features, either way. If your budget can carry it, pay. If it can't, don't.

Trellis is early, and we set up every ministry personally.
