Why your church needs a website

Cast a wider net

Get discovered by a broader range of visitors by having a clean, professional church website. Most potential visitors will search for information about a church online before ever stepping through the door. We'll help you make sure that your digital “front door” leaves a good first impression.

Tell your story

Conveniently provide answers to important questions that attendees or visitors might have, connect them with your leaders, and shed light on your church’s gifts and emphases.

Make giving easier

Lower barriers to giving for your attendees and members with optional online giving. Your church can simply and securely accept recurring online donations, making it easier to support the work of the church.

We make building websites painless

Looking for a new website for your local church, but need help to build it? We are here to help you! Our trained specialists can build your church a new WordPress website to help you reach new people. We also offer services like additional coaching, SEO activation, and website security packages.

Building a website through Wordpress is a breeze and the support we receive through UMCom is invaluable. All of my questions and site issues were (and continue to be) resolved by UMCom so you don't feel like you have to be a site-building expert to get a great looking site up and running in a matter of hours.
