Harvest Bible Chapel PeoriaHarvest Bible Chapel PeoriaByTravisTaggedCustom Harvest Bible Chapel Quote 0 commentsAdd comment Harvest Bible Chapel in Peoria's design team wanted a new look for their website. They created a custom skin and worked with us to make it as interactive as possible.

Images at the top of the page emphasize Harvest Bible Chapel's values of Worship, Walk (with), Work (for), and Witness (for) Christ. And links in the middle of the page link to the church's online sermons, location, and mission. They've also utilized the Rotator Feature to display banners their design team created.



Travis,

Just a quick thanks to let you know how much I appreciate the website. We have received many oohs and ahhs and we have not really pumped it yet. Next few weeks we will be directing our body at the web more and more as events are coming with sign up and we now can do it online!

Anyway, organization, features, simplicity of use for my staff…all great. Thanks.

In Him,
Pastor Tim Harkness

Christian Tabernacle ChurchChristian Tabernacle ChurchByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom 0 commentsAdd comment Christian Tabernacle Church in Roselle, Illinois wanted a custom, unique look to their church website––a look-and-feel that reflected the personality of their congregation. Baron3, the designer of other custom skins, put together a sharp look using violets and pinks and incorporating their logo.

A church of around 200 attendees with no Flash expert on staff, they wanted an easy way to manage the rotating ads on their home page. This initiated the development of the Rotator Feature. So all that use this feature in the future have CTC to thank.



Harvest Bible Chapel - Founding ChurchHarvest Bible Chapel - Founding ChurchByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom Harvest Bible Chapel Harvest Skin 2 commentsAdd commentYou might already know that using a content management system to keep your website up to date has its advantages. But what do you do when you want to redesign your church's website?

Does it require a "Herculean" effort by many staff members? Are you forced to set up a brand new website or can a new design be applied to your existing content? There are a growing number of churches that have multiple locations now, so what if you need to expand your one website into multiple websites that are campus specific?

While we provide services to many small churches and organizations, we can also handle that "Herculean" effort.

Almost three years to the day, the founding Harvest Bible Chapel has successfully relaunched their website(s). This time, with a different flare though. Their previous website housed all of its ministries on each of their four campuses. We helped them transition to six campus-specific websites that their staff can manage.



Their main site, http://www.harvestbiblechapel.org, provides all-campus information and resources. It also acts as a springboard to the campus websites. This helped to solve their growing menu crowding and site clutter.

While there were many hours invested in the design, created by Baron3 Visual Communications, the actual process of going from one website to six took twelve hours and three staff members Friday night and Saturday morning. It was well worth it!

Check out the new campus sites by visiting the main site and clicking the campus links, or click on the links below.

Acucare Total HealthAcucare Total HealthByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom 0 commentsAdd commentWe are pleased to announce the new website for Acucare Total Health. This website serves as a gateway to the Elgin community for clients can request an appointment, learn about what treatments Dr. Renee R. McMurry, D.C. and her staff offer, take a mini virtual tour of their office before their visit as well as learn about Acucare's community involvement



We are excited to have them aboard our system and many thanks go out to Nate Baron of Baron 3.  Here is an excerpt from his website about the launching of their website.

After some ups and downs as a medical practice, including the loss of a prominent mentoring doctor, a devastating fire and all the complications that come with a business going up in flames, AcuCare has chosen to rebirth their natural healthcare practice. The difference between the old offices and the new one is dramatic. It's also a well-deserved move, if you ask us.

Honored to be part of the relaunch, Baron3 was selected to rebrand the practice, and to help with everything from stationery to the website. The process has begun, as evidenced by the portfolio items already in the various portfolio sections. We're in the middle of photo shoots, website design and general branding practices. Please check back later for more exciting items that we are creating for AcuCare Total Health.
Harvest Bible Chapel - OakvilleHarvest Bible Chapel - OakvilleByTravisTaggedCustom FrailDesigns Harvest Bible Chapel 0 commentsAdd commentWe placed a fresh coat of paint on the site for Harvest Bible Chapel of Oakville. In this itteration, we went in a different direction than their last custom design. As their church has grown and they have placed a larger emphasis on communicating online to their church body, they have found that their website has been filled with tons of information. At times, it can be hard to find quickly find items.

After plugging their Google Analytics account number into their iMinistries website, they found that a large portion of their viewers have larger screens than what they had just over two years ago. Because of this handy information, we were able to make the viewport, or the space that you see, much wider. This has allowed them to have more menu items and more content front-and-center without having to scroll down the page.


 

In addition, Harvest Oakville is the first to use another feature that we just created a few weeks ago--the Quick Menu. This new feature helps users find things quickly on your website. With just a click of a button, a detailed menu slides down, listing links which jump to hard-to-find items. While you can kind of see how it looks in the screen shot provided below, we encourage you to check it out yourself by either clicking on one of the images or visiting http://www.harvestoakville.ca.



ReFuelReFuelByTravisTaggedCustom FrailDesigns Quote 0 commentsAdd commentReFuel Fest is a Christian music festival in Delhi, Ontario, Canada that hosts various Christian artists. In 2009, Third Day, Skillet, Superchick, and many more will be performing live. They came to us in need of a website that they could maintain themselves instead of having someone else update it for them. Now that they are using iMinistries, they can update their website easily in more than just one facet.  From news and events to ads for the performing artists and sponsors, the folks at ReFuel can add and edit content at their convenience.

"I not only use iMinistries and believe it is one of the most innovative and helpful systems for any-size church, I also recommend it to my clients when they are looking for the best way to display and market their content."

Harvest Bible Chapel - York RegionHarvest Bible Chapel - York RegionByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom Harvest Bible Chapel Quote 0 commentsAdd commentIn January, we unveiled a new look and feel for Harvest Bible Chapel York Region. They had previously been using one of our free skins for over a year and made the decision to go "all in" in the fourth quarter of 2008. We were excited for the opportunity to serve them in this way for it is one of our first websites which has an increased content space, as you can see from the screen shot below.

"iMinistries provided us with a valuable resource at very reasonable cost. The timeliness of their turnaround and the creativity of their design allowed us to clearly communicate the gospel and effectively provide our church with relevant content. We continue to use iMinistries, and would recommend them to any church or organization looking to develop their online presence on a budget."

One Verse - Artists ProgramOne Verse - Artists ProgramByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom Quote 2 commentsAdd commentThe Artist Association program is a community of artists that have a passion for God’s Word and want to use the ministry God has entrusted to them to bring the Good News to the poor, oppressed, and those kept in darkness, without the light of hope found in Christ Jesus. Artist Associates encourage others to sponsor the translation of God’s Word for a specific people group–ultimately celebrating with them in hearing from God in their own heart language! The Artist Association is a partnership between The Seed Company’s OneVerse Program and the artist. Through their efforts, time and passion for music, they are an invaluable partner in connecting those that have God’s Word to those that don’t.

The website we created for them is vibrant, colorful, and "artistic" while still maintaining a clean look with tons of informative content.




"Our experience with iMinistries couldn’t have been better! iMinistries excels in their customer support. From thorough research in our ministry to make sure they were meeting our needs, the ease of the custom design and attention to detail, the online help tutorials on how to navigate the many benefits of their tools, and the easy maintenance. They are always coming up with new features to serve our needs. The personal attention to our needs was outstanding. I’ve never had such friendly, fast, and competent service before. They were a blessing to us!"

Come to HarvestCome to HarvestByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom Harvest Bible Chapel 0 commentsAdd comment We created this website for a series featured at Harvest Bible Chapel. This site contained a welcome video by senior pastor, James MacDonald, an open invitation graphic, and linked to the main Harvest Bible Chapel website. This site is a great example of how video can be embedded on a homepage (or within your website) to dramatically represent your ministry.




Harvest Bible Chapel - LondonHarvest Bible Chapel - LondonByTravisTaggedBaron3 Custom Harvest Bible Chapel Quote 0 commentsAdd commentHarvest Bible Chapel of London, Ontario is one of my favorites! Both the staff and the site are top notch. I hope to make it to their church and Harvest Oakville at some point if I ever make it to Canada. This site is another great example of how we can make your ministry's web presence fresh and eye-catching.


"We switched to iMinistries in 2006 and we have never looked back. The quality and ease of use of the content management system is amazing, as our site is highly presentable, but requires little time from me to make it that way as all the pieces are already in place. We had our whole site customized in 2008 and I could not be happier with the way it turned out, and the level of customer service we received on the project was outstanding."

Harvest Bible FellowshipHarvest Bible FellowshipByTravisTaggedCustom Harvest Bible Chapel 0 commentsAdd commentBecause I was on staff with Harvest Bible Fellowship and was in charge of implementing a design that mirrored their latest brochure, I am unable to give a review of iMinistries. However, I can say that I really like this site because of the podcasting area which is found in the Resources section.  I believe that it really showcases our blog functionality for you can sort on a variety of authors or tags, years and even months. You should check it out.

Kossuth Street Baptist ChurchKossuth Street Baptist ChurchByTravisTaggedCustom Quote 0 commentsAdd comment"I'd like to say thanks to Travis and his team their for their brilliant web communications tool. We're in the beginning phases of implementing this tool for our church, but it is definitely going to change how our church communicates with its membership and external audiences. This single tool has shifted our communications from a rigid top down structure (i.e. church leadership to membership) to a more open, flexible, horizontal structure that empowers key ministry personnel and lay-leaders throughout the church to communicate directly, increasing communication speed and accuracy. More importantly, this tool will help ease the burden on key full-time staff.



"I am also extremely thankful for iMinistries’ robust suite of built-in communications tools--blogs, e-newsletters, forms/registrations, photo galleries, podcasting, shopping carts, and much more--all for one convenient price based on your church's size. As a vice president of a marketing communications firm that develops complex web sites for a living, I discovered I couldn't have my team develop a package from scratch, like iMinisties, for any less than $20,000 (far beyond the reach of my church’s web budget). For the price, the iMinistries tool is by far and away the best deal going.
"I also, found the iMinistries site is completely scalable to suit our church’s needs. So, we can grow the site both vertically and horizontally as well turn web features (i.e. blogs, galleries, newsletters, etc.) on AND off as our church sees fit.

"Best of all, thanks to iMinistries WYSIWYG content editing system – our church can maintain a relationship-building presence on the web without having a full-time web guru on staff. The content interface is very, very similar to a popular word processor, so populating and updating site content is a breeze. iMinistries even offers an array of how-to videos and searchable FAQs to assist even the most novice of users. But in the few instances I required deeper support, the iMinistries team was never anymore than an e-mail away.

"I could go on and on about the power and affordability of the iMinistries’ tool. However, I’ll just leave it here for now."

This website for Solid Rock Youth Ranch looks a little bit different than some of the other church websites we've done, but the outcome is original, clean, and, as always, easy-to-use.

Harvest Bible Chapel Naperville is another example of how a church can implement its personality, logo, color scheme, and vision into its website. Although it is a Harvest church plant, its website is as unique and representative of itself as its people.

"I am extremely pleased with our iMinistries experience. Our customized skin allows us to present a distinctive yet professional image, and the website itself is easily kept current and interesting by our non-technical staff. The iMinistries product is a godsend for a church with limited resources to devote to their web presence."

This site has a very bold customized look with many pictures and tons of information on the homepage. They have chosen to have newly created events jump to their homepage automatically, a feature that is easy to implement.



Portfolioby Seeing is believing. Take a look at some of the designs that we have made for some of our customers as well as some of the free skins that we offer all of our customers.
