Milton, Sunday 9:30
The two-year-olds' room gets the window, the rocking chair and the best snacks.
Northgate Kids
Every child gets a printed name tag that matches the sticker on your receipt. Nobody leaves a room without the matching sticker, and no volunteer is ever alone with a child.
On a normal Sunday about 640 kids are checked in across the four campuses, taught the same lesson by people who have been background-checked and trained.
Why people stayed

We tried the Alpharetta campus because it was close. We stayed because the nursery lady knew Eli's name the second week.

My parents like the Korean interpretation at 11. I like that I don't have to pick between their church and mine.

I set up chairs in a high-school auditorium at 5:30 in the morning. Somehow it's my favorite part of the week.

Design notes
A website for a four-campus church where the first question is always which building, and the second is what to do with the kids. Campus and service times sit one tap from every page, and kids' pre-registration is treated as a front-door task.
Red Hat Display for headings, Red Hat Text for reading and Red Hat Mono for times and labels. One family in three cuts keeps four campuses visibly the same church, and the mono gives service times the steadiness of a departure board. The display face has open, round letters that still read on a lobby screen at the back of a high-school auditorium.
The red comes from Georgia clay along GA-400 in the cuts by the Windward exit, deepened until white type on it passes AA. It sits on a cool blue-gray because the buildings are modern and the photography is full of stage light. Marigold is held back for small highlights. In dark mode the red lifts toward coral and the background goes to the navy of a darkened auditorium.
A tabbed bar works like the church app most members already use, with seven tabs that stay put under a compact header. Big multisite sites tend to hide things in mega-menus, and here every section is one tap away on a phone. The nav button always says Pick your campus, because that is the decision every visitor has to make first.
Three doors replace a headline: a first Sunday, kids and students, and serving. Each is a real photograph from the kind of room it leads to. Directly underneath, one table shows every service at every campus, so nobody has to open four pages to compare times.
The words describe the task: Pick your campus, Pre-register your kids, Tell us you're coming, Find a serve shift. Kids' pre-registration has a hero form of its own, because parents told us the check-in line was the most stressful five minutes of a first visit.
Real rooms with stage light, kids' classrooms with chairs that fit them, volunteers in team shirts. We avoided the arena-crowd silhouettes that make every large church look the same. Campus pastors are shown as people, smiling and out of costume.
Every text pairing passes WCAG AA in both themes. The schedule is a real table with headers, the tabs are a labeled navigation landmark, and the live stream lists its captions and chapter times as text. Buttons are at least 44 pixels tall for thumbs in a parking lot.
Every text pairing is checked against WCAG 2.2 in both themes.
