Central Christian Church
This website does a great job letting potential visitors know they are welcome to join them for Easter. Central Christian Church also does a good job at getting the word out so that visitors know what to expect during both of their Easter services. This can help to alleviate some awkwardness that visitors who aren't familiar with their church might feel, especially when it comes to knowing what to wear. Besides helping their visitors feel right at home, one of our favorite things on this webpage are the shareable graphics that make it easy for people to invite their friends and family to their Easter services.
Shelter Cove
Some churches have services during the entire Easter season. With so much information, it can get confusing, making all of the services hard to promote at the same time. As you can see, however, Shelter Cove keeps it simple, making their promotion page for the upcoming Easter services easy to follow. The graphics add a nice touch as well. Website visitors will be able to see right away that they have two Good Friday services, two services on Saturday, and not one or two, but four services on Easter Sunday. Keep on scrolling and you'll easily find information on their Eggstravaganza event.
Relevant Church
Visitors to Relevant Church's website will be able to see at a glance when they are holding their Easter services. They also make other pertinent information easy to find, letting visitors know about their adult services, and that they also have something for the kids. With just a click, site visitors can find out more about their church and how to pre-register the kids. Scroll down and check out Relevant's large, colorful, and attention-grabbing graphics. It's super cool that they are already building momentum to promote their post-Easter service activities.
