Mission Lutheran Church
Website Build, Revamp and Maintenance
Our task was to rebuild Mission Lutheran Church’s website from the ground up so that a first time visitor can find service times, watch a sermon, or give in a few taps, and so the church’s staff can keep it current without fighting the site.

A New Front Door for a Laguna Niguel Church
Mission Lutheran Church’s previous site ran on an older page builder theme that was hard to update and buried the things visitors look for most. We replaced it with a custom WordPress theme built around three questions every visitor has: when do you meet, what is it like, and how can I take part.
The homepage now opens with a video welcome from Pastor Russ, a live countdown to the next Sunday service, and the three things happening at the church this week. Recent services load straight from the church’s YouTube channel, so new sermons appear on their own. We added a dedicated Give page with online and text to give options, a Mission:Go page for the church’s outreach, a full events calendar, and separate ministry pages for children, youth, music, seniors, adults and care, each with the church’s own photos instead of stock images.
The refreshed look pairs a calm sage base with warm terracotta and gold accents and classic serif headings, and on phones a simple Visit, Watch and Give bar stays within reach. Since launch we have stayed on as the church’s web team, handling ongoing updates to pages, events, staff profiles and ministry content.
Result
A welcoming, mobile friendly site that answers a newcomer’s first questions on the homepage, keeps sermons and events current with little effort from staff, and makes giving simple. With ongoing maintenance in place, the church has a site that stays as current as its Sunday bulletin.
