Methodist Website Revamped and Relaunched

The Methodist Church has completely revamped its website. From Thursday 24 May, visitors to www.methodist.org.uk will see a completely redesigned site that aims to be easier to use and more expressive of the best of Methodism.

Dave Webster, Co-Head of Communication for Electronic Resources, says, "The old site was showing its age, and contained far more information than it could easily direct people to. The new site makes it easier to quickly find useful information, whether you are a Methodist minister or member, or even if you are just interested in one aspect of the Church. It is also more inspiring, and attractive."

The site will feature a daily prayer, and dedicated sections for particular elements of the Church's work and mission. The new site also makes use of Web 2.0 ideas, allowing people to form networks around common interests as active users rather than passive readers.
