By the ChurchPress team at Amplify Digital Media

Key takeaways

  • +Create one authoritative Easter page.
  • +Prepare the entire arrival and follow-up journey.
  • +Publish early enough for search and sharing.

01

Publish a complete Easter page

Create a stable page with dates, times, address, parking, service length, kids programming, accessibility, livestream details, and a clear explanation of what to expect. Include the year in visible content and metadata to prevent confusion with old pages.

Publish several weeks ahead when possible, then link it from the homepage, Google Business Profile, email, social posts, and local listings.

02

Review the guest journey

Test directions, entrance signage, optional planning forms, kids registration, and confirmation messages. Make sure staff know who receives each submission and how quickly they should respond.

Use authentic current images and plain language for people who may have little church background.

03

Plan the next step before the weekend

Decide how the page will change after Easter. Offer sermon replay, prayer, groups, baptism, another upcoming service, or a simple way to stay connected. Follow up only with appropriate consent and a clear purpose.
