SCD goes WordPress!

Things look different around here, don’t they?

Well, it’s for good reasons – we’ve completely re-worked our district’s website building it from ground up in WordPress.

Why? Functionality!

We want you to play an active part in the content found here at scwesleyan.org.  In switching our site to WordPress we will be able to offer the following features to everyone in our district:

• Each church will be able to set up and maintain their own page on the district site. If a church already has a website, they will be able to point their page to automatically redirect it there. If the church doesn’t have a website, they can use their page here at the district website to share information about current activities, victories and other information.  You can even purchase a domain (eg. www.churchname.com) and point it at your page on the district website!
• Departments will be able to update and share information at their convenience – are the district Wesleyan Women having a tubing trip down the Nantahala?  Now everyone will know!
• Churches will be able to share stories and submit them to be placed on the front page of the site.  Did your church just have it’s 200th birthday?  Submit a story with pictures and information — we’ll get it out there for everyone to see!
• Reports will be able to be filed via a web-form right here on the site!  Tired of downloading, printing and mailing your Quarterlies?  Fill them out right here – quickly and easily (more info on this coming soon!).
• Join in the conversation!  You’ll be able to add comments, thoughts and leave encouragement for each other through the comments feature — why, you could even leave comments on this post…

We are excited about these changes, and we hope that you will be too.  If you have any questions feel free to ask — we’ll be happy to help you get it all sorted out.  Change is a great thing, isn’t it?
