By the ChurchPress team at Amplify Digital Media

Key takeaways

  • +Publish one authoritative Christmas page early.
  • +Make service differences, capacity, kids programming, and accessibility clear.
  • +Plan the post-Christmas next step before promotion begins.

01

Create one reliable Christmas destination

Use a memorable URL such as /christmas with the year, dates, times, address, service length, style, kids programming, accessibility, livestream availability, and whether registration is required. Explain meaningful differences between services.

Publish early enough for indexing and sharing, then link the same page from the homepage, Google Business Profile, email, social posts, and ads.

02

Test the arrival experience

Review the page on a phone and tap every service, map, calendar, registration, and livestream link.

  • Confirm holiday service times everywhere
  • Explain parking and overflow plans
  • Show the correct entrance
  • State nursery and kids age ranges
  • Describe communion or candlelight elements
  • Provide accessibility and interpretation details
  • Prepare weather or cancellation updates

03

Plan a helpful January handoff

Decide what the Christmas page will show after the final service. Offer a recording, prayer, regular Sunday information, a newcomer path, or an upcoming January series without making visitors feel pursued.

Keep useful annual content at the stable URL and refresh it each year. Remove outdated structured event data and prominent promotions promptly.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers

When should a church publish its Christmas service page?

Publish as soon as service details are dependable—often four to eight weeks ahead—and update all linked profiles when plans change.

Should each Christmas service have a separate page?

Usually one complete page is clearest. Use separate event pages only when services differ substantially or require distinct registration and details.
