Orchard

Real Mentorship for Real Life
Found Right in Your Church

Over and over, Christians point to mentors and role models as the catalysts that made them who they are today. And yet, Christians can't find mentorship for the biggest challenges in their lives. 

 

There's a gap between the specific challenges Christians are navigating and the experience and wisdom of other Christians who already faced the same thing.

 

We built Orchard to help churches cultivate targeted intergenerational mentorship to spot the connections within their congregation at the granular level that Christians need.

We've spoken with pastors, priests, and church leaders across denominations. All of them say the same thing:

We want to make these connections between Christians, but we just don't know how.
