Take a look at what we have completed so far and see what you think. We are trying to make the site simple to maintain and update by a bunch of non-techie ministry leaders.

It's weebly for sure. Learning a few tricks to modify their templates but my knowledge of CSS is pretty much zero.

I liked it. Scanned through all the baptism photos and it took a bit. I would say maybe some of the photos could be culled, but all those smiles! After the last two weeks we've seen, those are priceless. Keep 'em all.

Phone number

Legit question. Honestly? Hardly EVER get a call on the church office phone that is not a salesperson.
Phones are so last century.
I'll add phone, fax and pony express contacts.

My wife made me switch to that one because she felt Mickey Mouse might not be the best choice.

Being cash poor we use all kinds of donated and borrowed gear. We take a feed from the sound mixing board for the webcast. We have 2 MX1 small video switchers, both donated, and use member's laptops to stream. Pretty much patched together gear.

any tips on where to look for a how-to on those tricks...weebly definitly has a lot of flexibility and easy functionality...I'm using the Pro platform and it has a lot of function...I've recently updated mine with photos and other info...
