You’ll have everything you need for building a WordPress church website with our latest Builder child theme release: Gallery Church — featuring integrations with both Builder Church Block and the newly-released Builder Events Block.

With a bold and modern style, this theme is perfect for church sites that are both welcoming with a fresh, direct message and easy to navigate for visitors.

And, since Gallery Church operates on Builder Theme Core’s layout editor and style manager, you’ll have the flexibility you need to design and create the layout and look of each page.

Easily Add Staff, Sermons and Featured Events from the WordPress dashboard

Builder Church Block and Builder Events Block (both included with Gallery Church) operate as plugins to extend the functionality of Builder.

Builder Blocks add easy-to-use menu locations in the WordPress dashboard for quickly adding specific content like:

• sermons (and audio files)

• featured events (with a calendar view)

• staff members to update your church’s staff page

Gallery Church’s Events and Sermon Styling

Gallery Church adds design styling for Builder Block content.

After using Events Block to create an event, add details and create a map, Gallery Church does the rest:

For sermons, simply add your content into the menu location in the WordPress dashboard. Again, Gallery Church goes to work adding styling to your content for a seamless look:

To see all of Gallery Church’s design features, make sure to check out the Gallery Church theme demo.

Gallery Church is available stand-alone, in the Builder Developer Pack (with 60+ other child themes), and in the All Access Theme Pass.

While WordPress has an iPhone plug-in for websites that use WP as a CMS platform, I think AppChurch would be an awesome tool if your church uses another CMS system.  Both Mars Hills and LifeChurch.tv have created and used this type of technology (I love both) with great success and I really feel it would be beneficial for you to check out for your church as well.  The AppChurch is a free download from the iTunes store though you do have to pay a monthly fee if you want your church logo, service times, map, events, and sermons to be included for your visitors to see … but at $7 per month for one website, I think this is a small investment if people visit your church because of it.

WordPress was the answer I found … it was easy to use and had numerous benefits – like helping the church get found online via Google and other search engines.

And after all this time, WordPress and one of our deigns is still powering the QSBC website today!

But that experience propelled me into freelance web design for clients all over the world, then eventually our first business, iThemes, where we provide high-quality templates for WordPress. (We’ve even been mentioned in the WordPress for Dummies book!)

It’s been a wild ride from that first website and the ChurchCommunicationsPro.com blog, which is ranked in the Top 100 Church blogs.

Now …. fast forward almost two years later, we’ve launched WebDesign.com to provide website design services and consulting.

Because of our team’s experience and knowledge of church marketing and church web design, we’re offering a special package designed especially for churches and ministries.

You can read about the Church Web Design package details here.

If your church or ministry is looking for a great web design or redesign solution, we’d love to talk with you about your site.

This package is designed to get you an affordable yet attractive website … with some special features like podcasting and an event calendar — both popular requests we’ve gotten from our church clients.

You can visit our contact form and email us, or call us toll-free at 888-743-0274!

In the meantime, thanks for following CCP!

P.S. — If you’ve been wanting to start a blog for your ministry, check out our Blog Design package too. It’s a great way to get started with the right design and tools to give you maximum impact!
