Feature Guide

Church Website

Every claimed church can generate a free micro-site from their existing listing data — no separate setup, no page builder, no card required. Preview it, customise the look, then publish when you're ready.

Auto-generated

Your website is built from your church listing automatically — service times, photos, contact details, events, and more. No blank page.

You choose when to publish

Nothing goes live automatically. Once your claim is approved, visit Dashboard, customise your site, and publish it yourself when you're happy with how it looks.
