Every template includes

The same engine under every design.

What is included

  • One of fifteen original designs
    Every page, every section, built by Emberline Studio. Your photos, words and colors make it yours.
  • Hosting, security and updates
    Fast global hosting, HTTPS, and a site that rebuilds itself. Nothing for you to patch.
  • An editor that cannot break the layout
    Change every word, photo, time and link. The design stays the design.
  • Forms that reach your inbox
    Plan a visit, prayer, contact, booking and email list forms email your team and send a warm reply to the visitor. You see every submission in one inbox.
  • Sermons from YouTube, automatically
    Paste your channel link once. New messages appear on your Watch or Media page every week.
  • Giving and live links
    Paste the giving link you already use (Tithe.ly, Pushpay, Givelify, any provider) and your live-stream link. Every button reads from them.
  • Events that clean up after themselves
    Add an event. After its date passes, it drops off at the next refresh. Sites refresh every Monday and every time you publish.
  • Your own domain
    Launch on a free Emberline address, then connect your domain with a guided setup. Written steps for GoDaddy, Squarespace, Namecheap, Wix and most other hosts.
  • Privacy and accessibility pages
    Included and already written for a church or ministry site.
  • Your content stays yours
    Export your content any time. Cancel any time.

What is not

  • Texting
    Email only. No SMS, no carrier registration, no compliance headaches.
  • A mobile app or members portal
    We make the front door. If you need an app or a member database, use a tool built for that and link to it.
  • Layout changes or custom sections
    The design is locked on purpose. If you need a custom build, Emberline Studio does those separately.
  • Setup calls or revisions
    Everything happens in your portal and the help library. We answer email within two business days.

We would rather tell you now than have you find out later. If you need any of these, you are better served elsewhere, and we will say so.
