St. John’s Episcopal Church
Our team overhauled St. John’s virtual presence and the timing couldn’t have been more critical. One of the key issues encountered during the project was navigating the church’s response to COVID-19. With in-person attendance impossible, we implemented a “Church at Home” section to allow people to congregate virtually. Along with an extensive activities calendar, this really became the hub for church life during lockdown. This eventually morphed into an in-person congregation and the website needed to evolve accordingly.
