Somebody's working overtime here
Somehow I managed to stumble across a church website that simply surprises me.
A small church called Saint Columba, in Gruline, Isle of Mull which is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Argyll & The Isles.
The surprise?
Well they have an up to date church events calendar, (A rare occurrence in most church sites I find), a schedule of services, again up to date, and most surprisingly, the sermons are posted - in written form and the audio presentation of them as well.
Most churches have difficulty just updating their own site, but this site, for such a small church (my perception)... not bad at all.

A friend of mine wrote a very, very good website for his home Church a few years ago, that from what I gather is a heavily used resource by them. Also the Church I'm part of in Portsmouth has a very up to date site and a nice rota to let everyone know when they're doing what, but then that is down to quite a few people who have worked/work at IBM amongst other places.

ReplyDeletea good, usable church website can make life better and occasionally, help faith to grow too.
why wouldn't we want great, helpful websites?
Another up-to-date (not to mention beautiful) site is www.stonebriar.org .
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning my site, Dan ;)
Did you work on that one too Ben?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately not - I'm just a student at the same Uni as Dan, one of his housemates in fact! But I do love that site, it's inspirational to me as a designer !
ReplyDeleteHey Ben, I love how you have structured your own website.
ReplyDeleteI think the "Collections" concept is fresh, especially when it allows you to occasionally change colours and banner images.
That's a great looking website.
Nice job.
Thank you, Randall :)
ReplyDeleteThe old colours and banners are still there when you view the old posts that fall within the time period.
