Responsive Web Design
West Rome Baptist is a non-profit ministry dedicated to helping people find and follow God’s plan for their lives in Rome, GA and surrounding areas. Hosting several hundred in attendance each week, they use teaching and the community of small groups to help attendees connect with God, with people, and with their purpose.
The ministry faced several challenges with their existing website. In addition to an unresponsive, outdated design, they were unable to organize events and groups in a clean, manageable fashion.
Since the church already utilized an app for its members, we decided to design the site navigation around first-time visitors and attendees looking to get more involved. This enabled the purging of unnecessary and redundent content between pages and encouraged us to simplify the traffic patterns in which we wanted site visitors to travel. Using a drone video of the downtown clocktower, a well-known Roman landmark, on the homepage, we immediately bridged the hometown and professional. The new WordPress environment allowed for a clean, responsive design to come alive while also giving powerful filters to search for groups and events by location, age demographics, dates, and more.
As an employee of West Rome Baptist for twenty years, I was overjoyed to work with the team to make this site the best it could be.
After two decades of working in a local church environment in various roles, the length of my clientele list is, well…it sits at one. However, the plethora of design jobs that arrived on my desk were many: print, social, book design, web design, apparel, announcements for screens, banners – just about any design a growing church might need, my hands were often in the middle of it.
