Website Design for Catholic Organizations

Our former employee, Kat Hurd (long may she reign), designing a beautiful website.

Bring Your Catholic Mission to Life Through Your Website

You’ve been called to share the message of Christ and help others encounter His love. Today, your website serves as the “front door” of your ministry, as it’s often the first touchpoint people have with your apostolate or parish. And you want that first impression to count!

An outdated or poorly designed website discourages visitors from exploring further, while a beautiful, user-friendly website attracts visitors and promotes engagement. You don’t want to inadvertently turn people away from an opportunity to encounter the Gospel message because they were frustrated with your website.

Your organization deserves a site that feels as intentional as your mission. Every detail should invite people into the heart of your mission and the life of the Church. Because when your message is clear and your site makes sense, your mission reaches further, and more people experience the love of God through your ministry.

Struggling with an outdated or ineffective website?

Many Catholic organizations feel stuck with websites that no longer serve their mission. Slow pages, dated layouts, and missing information make it difficult for site visitors to navigate and engage. Instead of building connections with your audience, these frustrations create distance between your ministry and those you serve.

A weak website makes it harder to communicate your mission and invite others into the work God is doing in your organization. Donors hesitate to contribute online, community members miss events and announcements, and online visitors don’t return. It’s time for a website design that expresses your purpose and helps people encounter Christ.

5 Stones Builds Websites That Serve Your Mission

When your organization needs a website built on a foundation of faith and excellence, 5 Stones is your mission-minded partner. We understand the challenges of integrating your calling with technology and craft. Through our web design services, we help you share your story in a way that reflects your mission and serves as a real-world entry point to the heart of what God is doing through your organization.

Each website is designed with thoughtful collaboration and technical excellence. With years of experience serving Catholic organizations of all sizes, we create websites that remove friction, deepen connection, and reflect the beauty of the Church’s mission online.

Websites Built for Catholic Needs and Functionality

A website should be both visually appealing and user friendly. Our team builds websites that combine beautiful design and dependable functionality, making it easy for people to connect, give, and grow in faith.

Our sites support eCommerce, event calendars, livestreaming, and secure online giving. We integrate newsletters, registration tools, and parish systems so your team can work efficiently. Through thoughtful website design, we help ministries fulfill their mission and reach their audience.

Our Mission-Driven Website Design Process

A strong website begins with understanding your mission. We listen to your goals, your audience, and the story that defines your work. Together, we shape a vision that connects faith with technology to draw people closer to Jesus.

Our team designs and develops a site that blends creativity and reliability. Each element serves your ministry and the people you reach. The result is a Catholic website design that strengthens engagement and helps your organization grow in service to the Church.

Websites for Every Catholic Organization

Every organization has a story to tell. We build websites that serve parishes, schools, dioceses, apostolates, and faith-based ministries and nonprofits. Each project strengthens communication, expands outreach, and glorifies God through your work. Our work with missionary organizations, Catholic student centers, Church initiatives, and Catholic publishers shows how thoughtful design expands every apostolate’s reach.

5 Stones has been a joy to work with, filled with conversations inspired by the promptings and movements of the Holy Spirit. They led us through a plan to create a new logo and website as we renamed our Newman Center on the campus of South Dakota Mines from the Rapid City Catholic Newman Center to the St. Carlo Acutis Catholic Student Center.

I recommend 5 Stones to all of my ministry acquaintances. Having had immensely positive experiences with them in the past, I knew that they would deliver a fully rebooted website that beautifully, creatively, and compellingly told our story... The secret sauce of 5 Stones is that they (1) know the Church audience inside and out and (2) love Jesus completely. Both of those things make them great partners in every project.
