Groups

Small groups — also called cells, teams, or classes — let your organization create focused communities within the larger membership.

Who Can Do What?

Opening Groups

Click Groups in the sidebar, or go to /groups.

Browsing Groups

Groups appear as cards. Each card shows the group name, icon, and how many members it has. Click a card to open the group.

Inside a Group

The group detail page has several tabs:

Viewing Group Members

On the Members tab you'll see a list of people in the group with:

• Their name and contact info
• The date they joined the group
• Any private notes left by a leader or admin (only visible to leaders and admins)

Creating a Group (Admin / Staff only)

1. From the groups list, click Add Group.
2. Enter a name (required).
3. Optionally add a description and an icon (emoji or symbol).
4. Click Save.

Adding Members to a Group (Admin / Staff / Group Leader)

1. Open the group → Members tab.
2. Click Add Member.
3. Search for the person's name.
4. Optionally type a private note about this member (only admins and leaders can see this).
5. Click Add.

Removing a Member from a Group (Admin / Staff / Group Leader)

1. Open the group → Members tab.
2. Find the member and click the remove icon (trash/×).
3. Confirm the removal.

Removing a member from a group does not delete them from the directory.

Group leaders are users who can manage the group's member list and record attendance.

1. Open the group → Leaders tab.
2. Click Add Leader.
3. Search for the user by name or email.
4. Click Add.

To remove a leader, click the remove icon next to their name.

Linking Events to a Group (Admin / Staff only)

Attaching events to a group lets you track attendance for that group at those events.

1. Open the group → Events tab.
2. Click Link Event.
3. Search for and select an event from the organization's event list.
4. Click Link.

Recording Attendance (Admin / Staff / Group Leader)

1. Open the group → Events tab.
2. Click Take Attendance next to the event — or go to /groups/[id]/attendance/[eventId].
3. For each group member, click Present ✓ or leave blank for absent.
4. Optionally add a note for any member (e.g. "On vacation").
5. Click Submit Attendance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I be in more than one group? Yes — there's no limit on how many groups a member can belong to.

I can't see the edit buttons. Why? You may be a regular Member. Only Admins, Staff, and assigned Group Leaders can edit groups.

What's the difference between a Group Leader and a Staff member? A Group Leader can only manage the specific groups they're assigned to. A Staff member can manage all groups in the organization.

Are my private notes visible to the member? No. Notes on group memberships are internal — only leaders and admins can read them.
