THE CHALLENGE
The Problem
The old site was a GoDaddy template nobody had the password to. It hadn't been updated in years. The congregation had no way to find service times, event info, or contact the church online. For a community church, that means new families driving by have no way to learn about you.
THE SOLUTION 
What We Built
We built a clean, fast site with everything the church actually needed: service times, event calendar info, an about the church section, a contact form, and directions. Hand-coded with Astro -- no WordPress, no page builders, no bloat. It loads in under a second.
