Case Study: St. Thomas Aquinas Parish
Business Challenge
Saint Thomas Aquinas parish needed a new website to capture the essence of their revitalized parish. They needed a dyanmic and fresh look, easy to update content, easy to navigate with lots of parish information, fully mobile responsive. They also needed a calendar solution for managing their internal calendar as well as their public visible calendar.
Our Solution
Connected Life Sites created a new WordPress website, fully mobile responsive, with a fresh brand and a warm feel from liberal use of photos. A custom calendar was provided to make it easy to update and manage internal office appointments, while also managing the publicly visible calendar of events with many easy-to-use features. Additional custom tools were provided to make it easy to upload Sunday bulletins, update staff bio’s, and update other content. A news blog was provided on the home page, as well as a custom integrated feed for displaying the daily Mass readings.
Today, Saint Thomas staff makes their own updates to all content, including the news blog, calendar, parish bulletin uploads, staff updates, and other content.
