The Challenge
1 Life Church in Cleburne, TX was a growing congregation with an outdated website that didn't reflect their vibrant community. First-time visitors couldn't find service times, event information was buried in Facebook posts, and online giving was a complicated multi-step process.
They needed a modern, welcoming digital presence that made it easy for visitors to connect, members to stay engaged, and donors to give—all while staying within a tight nonprofit budget.

Welcoming Homepage Design
Clean, modern design with prominent service times, location info, and a clear "Plan Your Visit" section for first-time guests.

One-Click Online Giving

"Stephen transformed our digital presence. We've seen a huge increase in first-time visitors who found us online, and our online giving has nearly tripled. The website is easy for our team to update, and it truly reflects who we are as a church. Best decision we made this year."
— Pastor David Rodriguez, Lead Pastor, 1 Life Church
