Church & Ministry Websites
Church website design for visitors and members
Websites for churches and ministries, from a small congregation to a church with several campuses. Two groups use a church site. Visitors want service times, the address, what to wear, where the kids go and whether they’ll feel welcome. Members want the sermon they missed, this week’s events, a way to sign up to serve and a simple way to give. I design church sites that serve both groups without burying either, and that staff or volunteers can update without waiting on a developer. Below: what a church site costs, and how to write a page for first-time visitors.

What you get
Service times up front
Times, address and parking on the home page, with a note on how long a service runs.
A first visit that feels easy
What happens when you walk in, where children go and what to wear, answered before anyone has to ask.
Giving in two taps
One button to give once or every month, through the giving platform the church already uses.
Volunteers can post updates
Events, sermon videos and announcements edited from a simple screen, with no code.
Brands I’ve designed and built for
Quick answer
A church site you put together yourself on Wix or Squarespace costs about $17.77 to $159.77 a month; a custom one starts at $5,000. More important than the price: a visitor should find service times, directions and what happens on a first Sunday within seconds, and a member should find the giving button just as fast.
The guide
What a church website costs
| Option | Price | Works for |
|---|---|---|
| A builder site run by volunteers | Wix $17.77–$159.77 or Squarespace $19–$99 per month, yearly terms | A small congregation with a volunteer who enjoys it |
| A church website company | Monthly plans that differ by company; compare what each includes | Churches that want templates tied to sermons and giving |
| Upwork freelancer | Typically $15–$30 per hour, or $45–$75+ if you want custom design | Fixing a few pages on the current site |
| Custom church site (me) | From $5,000, one set price, plus hosting | A site planned around both visitors and members |
Builder prices come from Wix and Squarespace (October 2026); freelance rates from Upwork (November 2026). For other budgets, read how much a website costs.
How to write a plan-your-visit page
- Service times and how long each one lasts.
- Where to park and which door to use, with a photo.
- What people usually wear, said honestly.
- Where children go, how check-in works and which ages each room is for.
- Whether there’s coffee, a welcome table or someone to sit with.
- Accessibility: ramps, seating, hearing help and large print.
- A way to let you know they’re coming, if they’d like to.
Say what you believe in everyday words
Many church sites list beliefs in language only longtime members know. A short summary at the top, in everyday words, with the full statement of faith one click away, helps a visitor understand you before they walk through the door.
Whoever builds it, how to hire a web designer helps you compare the options.
Work
Serving shifts and giving you can try
Commons Pantry, a food bank I made up, has a gift receipt, a shift picker for volunteers and hours that say whether it’s open this minute: the same jobs a church site does for giving, serving and Sunday times. See all 26

FAQ
Questions buyers ask
What should a church website include?
Service times and location on the home page, a plan-your-visit page, what you believe in plain words, sermons, events, ministries for each age, online giving and a way to reach a pastor. Many visitors decide whether to come from the first page they see.
How much does a church website cost?
A volunteer-built site costs $17.77 to $159.77 monthly with Wix or $19 to $99 with Squarespace on annual billing. Several companies make church-specific sites, so compare what each one includes. A custom church site from me starts at $5,000, priced once.
Can people give online through the website?
Yes. Most churches already use a giving platform; the site can embed its form or link to it, and list other ways to give alongside.
Should we stream services on the website?
If you already stream to YouTube or Facebook, the site can show the stream on Sundays and keep past services in the sermon archive.
Who will update the site each week?
Usually a staff member or a volunteer. I set it up so events, sermons and announcements can be changed without code, and train whoever takes it on.
Do you work with churches outside Los Angeles?
Yes. I build sites for congregations across the US. I’m in Los Angeles, and everything happens through email and preview links.
