Hawthorne Gospel Church is a 2,000 person church in Northern New Jersey that serves thousands each week through worship services, ministries, and community programs. Their previous website was built in-house on a basic drag-and-drop platform and had become slow, unstable, and difficult to manage. They needed a website that could guide both members and visitors to the right information quickly while supporting the church’s communication needs.

The primary goal was to build a modern, reliable website that made it easier for both visitors and long-time members to find the information they needed. The redesign aimed to create a clear structure for ministries, events, livestreams, and giving so users could navigate the site without confusion.
Another goal was to improve the site’s performance and management. This included enhancing mobile usability, strengthening backend stability, and creating a design that reflected the church’s identity while allowing staff to update content with confidence.
The new website introduces a clean layout and intuitive navigation that significantly improves the user experience. Visitors can now access key areas within seconds, and the site loads faster and operates more consistently across all devices.
Feedback from the congregation has been overwhelmingly positive, with many noting the improved clarity and visual quality. The updated structure also positioned the church for future digital growth by supporting stronger communication, streamlined updates, and better engagement with both members and guests.
