10.0 MAKING IT YOUR OWN
Unlike ordinary parish websites, your website is very dynamic with a magazine-style front page that features articles that change daily. These articles come from an automatic direct feed from our global website. But while your website content will always be fresh as a result of this, it is still best that you spend a few minutes each week to update it with parish-related articles so it develops a parish personality that is distinctly yours. This chapter shows you show this can be done in just a few minutes each week.
