In 2020, I designed the original Christ Healing Centre website using Squarespace. As a graphic designer with no coding background at the time, it offered an accessible way to bring the site to life. However, as the site grew, its limitations became clear especially the non-responsive layout and the manual process required to update events and content.
To future-proof the site and streamline content management, I transitioned to Framer. Its no-code workflow, responsive design capabilities, animation tools, and CMS integration made it an ideal platform for a more scalable solution. I dove into the rebuild process, iterating through multiple versions to refine both the user experience and the underlying structure. Along the way, I resolved bugs, optimized performance, and honed a workflow that balances flexibility with precision.
This project was a turning point in my web development journey. It deepened my understanding of responsive design, CMS-driven content, and efficient site architecture. With the skills I’ve gained in Framer, I now feel equipped to explore other platforms like Webflow or even custom HTML/CMS stacks with greater confidence and a faster learning curve.
Being the only graphics designer in Christ Healing Centre, I had to juggle many tasks.
One of these tasks was the YouTube Channel (used to help introduce the ministry to a wider audience).
This included the Video Editing, Thumbnails and any assets required, such as an intro and a outro.
Below is an example of one of the animations I did.
This video was made to advertise the new donation paths that Americans (or anyone who has access to these payment methods) can use to donate to the ministry.
In this video I used photoshop and illustrator to create the assets as well as some stock footage then mashed together and animated in after effects.
