Dasmariñas Bible Baptist Church
A full church website, built bilingual from the first line.
The public website for an independent Baptist church in Dasmariñas, Cavite: service times, sermon library with server-side filtering, eleven ministry pages, events with calendar exports, missions, giving, and prayer requests, with an English and Tagalog toggle. Our first project outside Guam, and the same demo-mode-first approach that lets a whole site ship before any backend exists.
The problem
A church that wants to be findable needs far more than a page of service times, and it usually has no staff to run a CMS and no budget to start over when the volunteer who built the last site moves on.
The system
One site that covers the whole public surface, written so a non-technical person can maintain it later, and honest with visitors while the content is still being confirmed by the church.
Inside the system
- Bilingual English and Tagalog across the site chrome and key pages
- Sermon library with search by series, speaker, topic, and year
- Events with per-event calendar files and livestream archive
- Five public forms behind one handler: rate limits, spam trap, and notifications that never carry prayer or counselling content
- Preview-content governance: draft notices, and giving is blocked until a two-person verification signs it off
