December 2025 Update

We've been hard at work since our last post on October 29, 2025. Here's a quick snapshot of changes that are now live across all church websites:

  1. Removed the third-party font we were using by reverting to system fonts. This results in initial page load times reducing slightly, as that third-party font was loading via CDN.
  2. Reduced the number of database queries the site uses. This too results in faster execution on all page loads.
  3. Added sitemaps to each church website (enabled automatically), helping to improve a church's search engine ranking.
  4. Released an initial calendar system.
  5. Made some minor structural updates to pages to improve SEO ranking.

Most exciting of all, we onboarded our first church (Wells Baptist Church) in November! We thank God for this answer to prayer, and thank Pastor Brian for trusting our service to host the Wells Baptist Church website. It's worth mentioning that Pastor Brian found us via our SermonAudio ad, so we can report back that our ad expirement certainly did get our website some exposure.
