May 2025 - May is a bridge month. Easter has passed, Pentecost is close and summer plans are taking shape. Your website can help the church move from one busy season to the next without losing clarity.
Show what is changing for summer
If service patterns, children groups, office hours or events change over summer, say so early. People trust a site that explains seasonal changes clearly.
- Summer dates: Publish key dates for services, groups, camps, socials and outreach.
- Volunteer needs: Make specific roles visible rather than asking for general help.
- Family information: Explain what happens for children and young people during school holidays.
Connect outreach to simple actions
Pentecost reminds churches to look outward. Digital outreach works best when every invitation has a practical next step attached.
- Create one page for summer community events.
- Add registration or interest forms only where they genuinely help.
- Share the same page across email, social media and printed notices.
A summer church website should feel alive, but it should not make the team work twice as hard to keep it alive.
Use this month well
Use May to simplify summer information, clarify volunteer requests and keep outreach content tied to real, easy actions.
Ask Intent to review your church website if you want a clearer structure, cleaner templates, or a calmer route from first visit to real connection.
