Digital help for small churches

A digital home for your church.

Hire CDS for a single project, like launching your first website, or hand your digital presence to us every month so no one on your team has to think about it. Either way, you get plain-spoken help sized for a small church budget.

Why CDS exists

churches should not have to choose between ministry and technology

When one pastor or a few church members carry everything, a confusing software bill or an agency retainer built for a bigger church can be the difference between getting help and going without. CDS is priced and scoped around that reality.

Be findable

Give guests one clear place to find your service time, location, beliefs, and next step, even when nobody on staff has time to maintain a complicated site.

Stay connected

Make announcements, prayer requests, and weekly updates easier to send without asking the same members to become a full-time communications director.

Make giving simple

We can help you understand practical online giving options and set up a clear path for people who want to support your church digitally.

Get help that fits

Choose a fixed-scope project when you just need one thing done, or a monthly plan when you'd rather it was simply handled. Either way, no oversized package.

How churches work with us

Pick the level of help your church actually needs

Most churches start with one project. Some later add a care plan once they know what they need help keeping up with. Neither path is required to lead to the other.

Path One

One-Time Projects

A fixed-scope, fixed-price project with a defined end point. We build it, hand it off, and show your church members how to run it. No recurring fee.

Best for: a first website, a giving page, a one-off setup task
Path Two

Monthly Care Plans

We keep your site, content, and digital tools running every month, so your members don't have to. Cancel anytime — nothing locks you in.

Best for: churches who'd rather delegate this than manage it
Practical help, either way

What we can help with

The same four areas apply whether you choose a single project or ongoing care — we'll scope the details together based on what your church needs.

The Digital Front Door

A clear, welcoming online home
  • Simple church website — the essentials guests need, without a complicated build
  • Website launch setup — choosing and configuring a low-cost or free option
  • Local visibility — make your service time and location easier to find
  • Content handoff — organize the important details and show church members how to change them

Digital Outreach

Reach people without a marketing budget
  • Content starters — reusable post ideas your memberscan actually keep up with
  • Sermon clips — turning Sunday messages into short, shareable videos
  • Event promotion — a focused plan for inviting your neighborhood without wasted spend

Congregation Connection

Simple tools for a connected congregation
  • Announcement workflow — decide what belongs in text, email, or Sunday notices
  • Digital prayer requests — a simple path that keeps care personal and organized
  • Email newsletters — lightweight weekly updates that do not require a designer

Digital Generosity

Clear giving without confusing fees
  • Option comparison — understand tools, processing fees, and tradeoffs before choosing
  • Online giving setup — make the giving path easy to find and use
  • Stewardship first — no pressure to add a platform your church cannot sustain
Included in every project

We train your volunteers, not just build for you

A website or tool is only useful if your church can actually run it once we're gone. Every one-time project and every care plan includes hands-on training for whoever will own it day to day.

🖥️

Live walkthroughs

A screen-share session with your staff or volunteers showing exactly how to make updates, post announcements, or send a newsletter.

📋

Plain-language guides

Simple, written step-by-step instructions your team can come back to anytime, even months after we've finished.

💬

Ongoing Q&A

A direct way to ask "how do I do this again?" when something new comes up, without feeling like you're bothering anyone.

Already have a website or tools in place and just need your team trained to use them well? We offer stand-alone training sessions too.
