A different kind of prayer platform

Carry each other's burdens—across your whole church

UpHeld helps your congregation share prayer needs and walk alongside each other. People share when they're ready, on their terms—and real connection happens.

Pastors only see the crises

By the time a need reaches the pastor's desk, it's often already urgent. The quiet struggles—loneliness, doubt, the slow ache of grief—stay invisible until they become emergencies.

Sharing takes trust

Some needs are too personal for a prayer card. Too tender for a small group. People share when they feel safe—when they control who sees it, and who can reach out.

Community that carries each other

You see the same faces every week, but how well do you really know what people are carrying? UpHeld opens the door to walk with someone through a hard season—and to witness God showing up in their story.

How UpHeld works

1

Share on your terms

Members share prayer requests and choose exactly who sees them. Post updates as things unfold—those walking alongside follow the journey.

2

Walk alongside

Others commit to praying. If they're open to connecting, the requester can see who—and reach out directly.

3

Connection happens

Real conversations happen off-platform—over coffee, by text, in person. UpHeld just made it easier to start.

Built for the whole church

For pastors

Finally see what your congregation is carrying

  • One place for every prayer request—no more lost cards or sticky notes
  • See who's walking alongside whom (without orchestrating it yourself)
  • Reach the people who never would have spoken up
  • Pastoral channel for visitors and prayer cards—right to your queue
For members

Share when you're ready, on your terms

  • You control who sees your request—and who can reach out to you
  • Walk alongside others in your church, even when you can't be there in person
  • Stay connected to churches that touched your life, wherever you are now
  • No public counts, no likes—just people praying for each other
For the congregation

Be part of how your church carries each other

  • Know what your church family is actually going through
  • Walk alongside someone through their whole journey—and hear how God answers
  • When you're ready to do more than pray, the door is open

Your church, extended

UpHeld doesn't replace your prayer ministry. It gives it reach.

The heart of your church is Sunday gatherings, small groups, meals dropped off, hands held in hospital rooms. We just make it easier to stay connected—to the shut-in who can't make it to service, to the member who moved away, to the person who isn't ready to ask out loud but is ready to ask here.
