How it works
No setup meetings, no spreadsheets. A leader starts the group, everyone else joins with a code.
Start a group
Name it, pick its color and its usual meeting day.
Share the code
Six letters, a link or a QR code. Open groups let people in right away; closed groups ask a leader first.
Keep meeting
Events, chat and prayer stay in one place, every week.
What a week looks like
Everything waiting on you shows up in one list, and ticks itself off as you go.
Bring a friend. We're starting Romans 8.
“Please pray for my mom's surgery next week.”
For leaders
Know who's coming.
See who hasn't answered and remind them in one tap. Notes like “Running 10 minutes late” show up right on the event, and join requests wait for your OK.
13 and up.
Every chat with a student includes a leader. Report and block are always one tap away, and reports reach the group's leaders and the Hilltop team.
Everything a group needs
And nothing it doesn't. Hilltop is free, with no ads.
Events and RSVPs
Going, Maybe or Can't go in one tap, with an optional note. Going events can land in your calendar.
Group chat
A chat for every group, plus direct messages. Photos, voice messages, replies and reactions.
Prayer requests
Share with the whole group, only your leaders, or keep it private. Tap “I prayed”, and mark it answered.
Polls and sign-ups
Pick the retreat weekend, take turns hosting, and see who's bringing snacks.
Announcements
Leaders post what matters. Urgent ones show first, and every announcement ends on its own.
Birthdays
Leaders get a nudge on the day, with a message or a group post ready to send.
“And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another.”
Hebrews 10:24–25 · ESV
