Easter is coming up fast!\u00a0 Are you ready?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Easter is one of the best times of the year for churches to connect with people in their community, and one of the best times of the year to help people deepen their relationship with God. Therefore, our focus until Easter is going to be on helping you prepare for Easter and then taking things to the next level after Easter.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with your church website.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Because your website is the front door to your church, it is important to do these\u2026<\/p>\n

5 Things To Prep Your Church Website For Easter<\/h2>\n

1. Make sure you have Easter service times prominently displayed on your homepage.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Even if your church isn\u2019t changing service times for Easter services, it is important to have your \u201cEaster Service Times\u201d displayed near the top of your homepage.<\/p>\n

2. Post info\/links to other Easter weekend activities.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If your church is having an egg hunt, Easter brunch, or any other special activities, give special attention to those events on your homepage.<\/p>\n

But, you don\u2019t have to have all the details of every event on your homepage. Usually, it\u2019s better to just post a headline or promotional graphic for each event and have it link to a calendar or event page that gives more details.<\/p>\n

3. Create a welcome message.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Although this is a good idea for any time of the year, it is especially important at Easter when so many new visitors will be attending.<\/p>\n

The welcome video should be short (1-2 minutes), friendly, and\u2026 yes, welcoming.\u00a0 The information included should address the question, \u201cWhat should I expect if I visit your church?\u201d<\/p>\n

4. Remove outdated information.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

If you haven\u2019t gotten around to the spring cleaning of your website (removing of old, outdated information), you absolutely should do it now.<\/p>\n

Nothing screams that your church is \u201cirrelevant\u201d more than outdated, irrelevant information on your website.<\/p>\n

5. Share volunteer opportunities.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Because attendance will be higher than usual, you will likely need more volunteers than usual.\u00a0 Give special attention on your website to the need for volunteers and link to a page that gives specifics on what serving opportunities are needed most and who to contact for each.<\/p>\n
