Portfolio: Friendship Primitive Baptist Church | Managed Web Design in Ringgold, GA
The Client
Friendship Primitive Baptist Church is a congregation in Ringgold, Georgia. The church needed a dependable online home where people could learn about its worship, doctrine, sermons, location, and ways to get in touch.
I connected with Friendship through Bethel Primitive Baptist Church, another church client of mine. That introduction turned into a website relationship that helped Friendship keep its ministry information available online.
The Objective
The church’s old hosting company closed down in 2020, leaving Friendship in need of someone who could rebuild and maintain its website. The goal was to:
- Rebuild the site after the hosting company closed.
- Give visitors a clear way to learn about the church and its beliefs.
- Make sermons and worship information easy to find.
- Provide contact and directions for people who wanted to visit.
- Set up YouTube live streaming and an archive through the church’s podcast platform.
- Take website management off the church’s plate so the congregation could focus on its ministry.
The AM Perspectives Solution
I rebuilt the website and got Friendship’s online presence working again. The current navigation keeps the essentials easy to find: Home, About Us, Sermons, Doctrine & Practice, and Contact & Directions.
The site gives the church a clear place to explain who it is and how it worships. It also gives visitors a direct path to Sunday service information, the church location, sermons, and contact details.
I also helped Friendship set up YouTube live streaming and sermon archiving through its podcast platform. That gives people a way to watch services as they happen and return to messages later, without requiring the church to manage several disconnected systems on its own.
The website is now managed for the church on an ongoing basis. Friendship has a reliable person to call when something needs attention, and the people serving the church can spend more time focused on the ministry itself.
Work Included
- Website Recovery and Rebuild: I rebuilt the website after the church’s former hosting company closed down in 2020.
- Church Information: Clear sections for About Us, Doctrine & Practice, sermons, worship information, contact, and directions.
- YouTube Live Streaming: Setup and support for live video of church services.
- Podcast Archiving: Connected the church’s live streaming and sermon archive with its podcast platform.
- Ongoing Website Management: Continued technical care so the church does not have to worry about keeping the site running.
What the Website Makes Easier
- Learning about Friendship: Visitors can understand the church’s purpose, worship, and doctrine before they arrive.
- Finding service information: Sunday service time, location, and contact details are easy to reach.
- Watching and revisiting sermons: YouTube streaming and podcast archiving give the church’s messages a useful online home.
- Keeping the church online: The website was rebuilt after the hosting shutdown instead of leaving the congregation without a digital presence.
- Focusing on ministry: Friendship has ongoing website support, so its members can focus on serving the church and its community.
The best part of this project is the connection behind it. Bethel Primitive Baptist Church trusted me with its website, that relationship led me to Friendship, and I was able to help another church get back online and stay there.
If your church’s hosting company has closed, your website has been left behind, or you need help connecting live streaming with an archive, I can help rebuild the site and manage it after launch.
