Built for Ministry

Designed for How Churches Actually Work

We did not build another generic CRM and slap a cross on it. Every workflow in Shepherd HQ reflects the real rhythms of pastoral ministry.

Sunday-to-Sunday Rhythms

Care needs do not follow a 9-to-5 schedule. Shepherd HQ adapts to the weekly rhythms of church life — from Sunday service follow-ups to midweek hospital visits to late-night crisis calls.

  • Automatic Sunday check-in reminders
  • Midweek follow-up scheduling
  • After-hours priority escalation

Volunteer-Friendly Interface

Your care team includes volunteers, deacons, and elders — not IT professionals. Shepherd HQ is simple enough for anyone on your team to use from day one, with no training required.

  • One-click care request submission
  • Simple mobile-first interface
  • Role-based views for different team members

Confidentiality Built In

Pastoral care demands trust. Shepherd HQ includes permission levels that ensure sensitive care details are only visible to authorized shepherds, protecting the privacy of every member of your flock.

  • Granular permission controls
  • Confidential care request flagging
  • Audit trail for elder board review
