Good Shepherd Lutheran Church of Laconia, New Hampshire approached me to update their website to make it more friendly to visitors, be easier to update and be able to feature regularly updated content.

Their new site features a beautiful featured content slideshow on the home page, with additional areas to showcase upcoming and ongoing events. The new identity captures the spirit of the congregation and welcomes visitors to the new site.

The new design has a younger feel that appeals to the college crowd. Integration with the LCM’s Facebook page and Google Calendar allows for students to easily keep up to date with what is going on.

I was approached by the Synod Office of the Northwestern Ohio Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America to create a new identity and rebuild their website from the ground up. Over the years, the synod has undergone several redesigns of their site, but never a comprehensive rebuild.

We reorganized the myriad of resources on the synod’s existing site into a new structure, created a new identity to match the synod’s mission and makeup, and built a beautiful new site that synod staff can easily update with current information, resources, events and more.

Christ Lutheran Church of LaVale, Maryland needed a new online presence to spread the word about their ministries to the community, and to offer information on current events to their members.

A set of custom WordPress plugins were created to highlight the church service times and location, as well as offer upcoming events in an easy-to-view format. The use of WordPress makes it easy for staff and volunteers to update the site on a regular basis.

The Stewardship of Life Institute is a non-profit organization affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. The Institute has maintained a web site with an extensive archive of articles, links and resources covering a broad range of stewardship related topics for many years and was in desperate need of an update not only to their look, but also to the management and editorial process.

After a thorough consultation, I built a new site that leveraged their existing archive with the easy administration of a WordPress site and built-in social networking features. Features include jQuery content sliders for the front page to dynamically display content,  integrated email newsletter functionality, custom print stylesheets Twitter, Facebook and email sharing and a custom “browser bar” that allows users to more easily find the content they need.

The Luther Bowl is an annual event involving seminaries from all over the United States. Each school fields a team for a day-long tournament of games. This year, I was asked to provide a design for the T-shirt that is sold to benefit students. The site evolved as a way to take pre-orders for the shirts and provide information for the event itself.

The Souhegan Valley Quilters Guild needed an online presence to advertise for their biannual quilt show, as well as to advertise upcoming events and provide membership information. Their new site includes an events calendar, an embedded Flickr gallery that guild members can post to, as well as information about their show.

Seacoast Unions is intended as a site for booking Abe as a Justice of the Peace to perform wedding and civil union ceremonies. The site features resources for event planning, photos and testimonials, and a contact form for booking.

Now is the Time is the theme of the current capital campaign at Christus Victor Lutheran Church. In addition to a variety of print projects, I produced this website for the campaign. It includes several videos I produced, as well as devotions and sermons written by the pastors and members of the congregation.
