Cross of Glory Church and School Website

Cross of Glory Church and School Website

Cross of Glory Lutheran Church and School website launched this past week.

Ben, Dennis and Micah were a great team to work with and they liked our design ideas and our approach to get them the look they wanted for their ministry.

Their old website was not very user friendly and just did not have the content that their church visitors were looking for. They also needed a mobile first approach which ads to the ease and flow of the design. 

 

Cross of Glory’s school is well known in this area. The school is serving children well and they have great momentum. Cross of Glory School and Preschool needed its own presence on the website. They needed space to portray information that parent’s are looking for. The school staff has its own area too. Each teacher was able to highlight their classroom environment and curriculum.  

 

I think we can say that the outcome of the website was just what they were hoping it would be. Our team enjoyed this project!
Here are some of the ways we helped Cross of Glory’s website become the interactive, up-to-date site it is: 
 

 Bible Reference Tagging

Want a more effective way to encourage your website visitors by using scripture on your website?

Using bible references on your church’s site can be daunting.  You may not want to write the verse/verses out, so using this feature can assist you there.  The bible reference tag feature, allows for you to use the verse (ex: 1 Peter 2:24) instead of having it typed out. When a user hovers over your scripture, they will get the entire verse to pop up. This keeps a visitor on your site versus having them leave to google it.  It also highlights the scriptures on the site (which makes it visually pop).

Gravity Forms

Using forms on your site can gain more traction than the traditional paper forms you may have at your building. A website user is more likely to ask for prayer, sign up for baptism or ask for more information via your website than in person. There are no limits on the Gravity forms plugin! You can add them to any page and have them submitted to anyone you designate to receive them.

Cross of Glory church wanted to use them for many different areas: baptism sign up; to request materials for a bible study and for small groups. On their school page, they used the forms to schedule a school tour!

Google Grant

Now that we have a professionally designed website with relevant content, we can utilize search engine marketing.  Cross of Glory just started their launch with the Google grant. We are REACHRIGHT help to manage the grant by creating specific ads and using key word sets that drive more traffic to the website. More website traffic = potential church visitors. Win, Win.
