For pastors & deacons · FaithKit on one page

A church website
you own outright.

Everything a pastor, deacon board, or business meeting needs to know about FaithKit, on one page. Read it here on your phone, print it — it fits one sheet — or watch it in twenty seconds.

01 · What it is

A complete church website that lives on your own server, not on a company's.

FaithKit is a finished website and admin for a local church — pages, sermons, events, prayer requests, members, and a homepage radio station that plays your own preaching. You download it or we install it. Either way the files are yours, on hosting you control, and nobody watches your visitors.

i

Your sermons on the air

Upload a recorded service and it becomes a rotating station on your homepage — for the shut-in, the visitor at 10 pm, the member who missed Sunday.

ii

One plain admin

Change service times, post a bulletin, add a sermon, answer a prayer request. Words, not code. A church secretary can run it after one afternoon.

iii

Members & prayer

A directory, families, and a prayer list that stays inside your church. Nothing is sold, shared, or scored.

iv

Warm and premium by default

Real typography, real imagery, no template look. It reads like a church that cares, not a startup.

v

Zero telemetry

No analytics beacons, no third-party scripts, no tracking pixels. A visitor's time on your site is between them and the Lord.

vi

Yours, permanently

Plain files and folders under an open-source license. Move hosts, change helpers, or run it for twenty years. No one can switch it off on you.

02 · What it costs

Two ways to have it. The same website either way.

Path one · do it yourself

Free. The whole thing.

$0Free & open-source · AGPL v3
  • Download it and put it on any web host that runs PHP — most already do.
  • Nothing held back. Same code, same admin, same radio station as the managed path.
  • Your only cost is your own domain and hosting, paid to whoever you already use.
  • A written install guide walks a willing volunteer through it in an afternoon.
Path two · done for you

Set up and cared for by MattCreates.

$300per hour · flat · estimate in writing first
  • We install it, put your photos and words in, connect your domain, and hand you the keys.
  • No packages, no bundles. One rate for everything; only the hours used are billed.
  • Hosting and domain are passed through at what they cost plus thirty percent for care.
  • Leave any time and take the whole site with you. No export fee, no lock-in.
Launch offer: the first 30 days of managed hosting are free — no card, no commitment. We set it up alongside you.
03 · Plainly

What it isn't, how to see it, and who to call.

What FaithKit is not

  • Not live streaming. The radio station plays your recorded services, rotating. Keep your livestream if you have one.
  • Not a monthly subscription. There is no plan and no per-member fee.
  • Not a giving platform. It links to whatever giving you already use.
  • Not a big company. It's built by one craftsman in Greer, SC — with the help he discloses in the AI Statement.
