Project Overview

Augsburg Fortress - Sundays & Seasons Custom Web Application

We developed Sundays and Seasons for Augsburg Fortress as a comprehensive worship planning platform that transforms how church leaders prepare liturgical services. The platform addresses the complex challenge of coordinating diverse worship elements across the three-year lectionary cycle while enabling collaborative planning and seamless resource integration.

Details

Challenge: Create a unified worship planning ecosystem that aligns liturgical content, music selection, and scripture resources with the liturgical calendar while supporting collaborative planning workflows and flexible output formatting.

Solution: Built an integrated worship management platform with advanced search capabilities, collaborative planning tools, and seamless integration with existing church technology workflows.

Key Features Delivered:

  • Comprehensive liturgical resource database with advanced search functionality for hymns, songs, scripture passages, and worship materials
  • Integrated planning workflow supporting date selection, base liturgy customization, and collaborative service development
  • Liturgical calendar alignment providing season-appropriate resources for regular services and special observances including weddings, funerals, and midweek services
  • Template-based planning system enabling service reuse and streamlined preparation for recurring worship patterns
  • Multi-format output generation supporting bulletin creation and projection slide development with Microsoft Office integration
  • Tiered subscription architecture including Deluxe access to expanded music libraries and preaching resources
  • Cross-platform integration capabilities with complementary tools like Prelude Music Planner

Technical Implementation:

  • Backend: .NET framework with MVC architecture for robust liturgical content management
  • Frontend: Bootstrap responsive framework with Razor templating for dynamic worship planning interfaces
  • Architecture: Web-based subscription platform optimized for collaborative worship preparation and resource distribution
  • Design Philosophy: Flexibility-focused approach supporting diverse denominational practices and planning preferences

Results: Delivered a comprehensive worship planning ecosystem that streamlines liturgical preparation while maintaining theological accuracy and collaborative efficiency, enabling church leaders to focus on meaningful worship experiences rather than administrative coordination.

 
It’s no exaggeration to say that Augsburg Fortress wouldn’t be where we are today without Torrch. Their technical expertise, attention to detail, and enthusiasm for the projects we’ve developed together have nurtured a partnership that we price greatly. We look forward to many more years of enjoyable collaboration!
