The Empowerment Unlimited Church is a religious organization located in Conyers, GA, dedicated to uplifting and empowering the people in their community through their worship services an community outreach programs.
(The website before any updates or changes and included information on both the non-profit and the church.)
The Empowerment Unlimited Church, formally BOLD Ministries developed a non-profit under the name BOLD Ministries where they served the community by providing food and meals to families and underprivileged children. To separate the non-profit from the church, they rebranded and named the church Empowerment Unlimited Church. After rebranding, they were in need of two new websites; one for the church and one for the non-profit.
Our first step was to analyze the current website and update it to focus solely on BOLD Ministries; the outreach and nonprofit division of the organization. Since the major focus of the project was to be the new church website, the goal for the non-profit site was to get it organized and presentable. We removed the church content from the site, organized the non-profit content and restructured the page layout and design. The website was now presentable and properly structured to promote the non-profit; the design can be updated at a later time.
Now it was time to focus on the development of the new church website. We began by conducted a brand strategy session with the client to define the brand, the goals and the target audience. During this time, we were able to determined what features, functions and design direction we needed to help them accomplish their goals and best serve their site visitors.
(Website wireframes and mockups with placeholder elements.)
Once the design direction was established, we designed wireframes to establish the layout of each page and provided a content strategy so that the client could begin collecting and producing the necessary content, then mockups to determine the look and feel of the website. We connected the client with a videographer and photographer for professional quality images and video to include in the website.
We developed a ten page, responsive and mobile-friendly website with outbound links, multiple contact forms, a database, event calendar and several other features that would make processes more efficient. We built the website on WordPress, which is a very flexible platform that will allow for easy updates and expansion.
S. Mays Designs did an outstanding job creating our church website and updating our outreach ministry website. We are grateful for Ms. Stephanie Mays for her patience, professionalism and wonderful spirit in helping us through this process!
