Church Vietnamese Baptist Church Website Template
Ân Điển
A site for a Vietnamese Baptist church in Little Saigon where grandparents worship in Vietnamese at nine, their grandchildren in English at eleven, and everyone eats together at half past twelve. It puts the language choice up front, makes room for the citizenship class that brings in neighbors who have never been to church, and treats baptism as the Baptist distinctive it is.

- Built for
- Vietnamese-speaking elders and recent arrivals, second- and third-generation Vietnamese Americans, spouses who don't speak Vietnamese, and neighbors preparing for the citizenship test.
- Navigation
- Two-tier header. A thin utility strip carries times, phone and language; the main bar below holds pages and the action.
Names, photos, times and stories in this template are sample content. Your version uses your own words, photos and branding.
Why it looks this way.
- Typography
Be Vietnam Pro was designed by a Vietnamese team, and its stacked diacritics (ấ, ệ, ở) stay clean in heavy, tightly set headlines where most Latin grotesques collide or clip. Body text is Literata at 18px, a book serif with full Vietnamese support and generous size for older readers on phones.

- Literata body text
- Color
The red is lacquerware red, sơn mài, darkened until white type on it passes contrast. The jade accent comes from the green glaze on the ceramics in most of our families' kitchens. Neutrals lean very slightly rose instead of gray, which keeps the pages warm without going cream.

- Layout
A two-tier header puts the Sunday times, the address and the phone number in a thin strip above everything, because the most common question from both generations is 'what time, and where'. The language switch sits in that strip too, and every heading and button changes with it.
Pages: Home, Sundays, Every generation, Citizenship class, Baptism, Our story
- Hero
The home page opens with an editorial stack of three photos: a family in áo dài at Tết, the Lord's Supper being passed hand to hand, and the teenagers. The headline names the real shape of the church, two languages and one lunch, instead of a slogan.
- Calls to action
The header button asks the question visitors actually have, 'Vietnamese or English service?', and the Sundays page answers it in one screen. The other actions are specific: sign up for citizenship class, enroll in Vietnamese school, ask about baptism.
- Photography
Wherever the library allowed it we used Vietnamese and East Asian families, students and elders. Where we couldn't, we chose photographs without identifiable faces, such as worship from behind, the ocean at dawn and lunch on the table, so the site never shows a congregation that isn't this one.
- Accessibility
Every color pair passes WCAG AA in light and dark themes, the language toggle sets the lang attribute so screen readers switch pronunciation, and the class sign-up form labels each field in both languages. Phone numbers sit in the top strip on every page for members who would rather call than click.
