Great for Other Christian Small Groups

Your group has a lot to talk about.

Why Caleb's Cafe?

Your group needs a place to share info
• Whether you are sharing plans, schedules, jokes, or photos from a recent trip, Caleb’s Cafe can help your group communicate easier and faster.

People forget to check websites
• Your group may already have a website, but does everyone remember to check it regularly? Our system auto-emails new posts to the group so they don’t have to remember to visit the site.

Not everyone is a “techie”
• Groups, families, and teams consist of different kinds of people, and not everyone finds the web easy to use. Our service makes posting messages, photos and files extremely simple. (Thus, people are more likely to use it).

Week-old news is old news.
• Today we hear of world news events within minutes. Help your groupS share prayer requests, announcements (and even jokes!) immediately.

Public or Private?
• Caleb’s Cafe allows you to create a private group (invitation only) or a public group (anyone can join).

It's So Easy!

We’ve made Caleb’s Cafe really simple. (Really!)

• all messages are auto-emailed to everyone in your group
• post new messages or comments just by sending an email to your group’s custom email address.
• posting photos, files and messages is really, really easy.
• use our “Easy Page” feature to create and post a “public” webpage, even while your group site remains private. (Did we mention it’s easy?)
