Vineyard Church App

‣ OVERVIEW
This project focused on creating a custom mobile app for Vineyard Church in Texas. The goal was to design a simple, user-friendly platform where members could easily give donations online, stay connected to church events, and quickly find local Bible studies that matched their schedules and interests.

 ‣ OBJECTIVE
The aim was to make an app that felt welcoming, intuitive, and true to the spirit of the Vineyard community. A major challenge was designing an experience that served both longtime members and newcomers—making it easy enough for anyone to navigate, while offering meaningful resources like Bible study groups and online giving options. I wanted the app to feel like a digital extension of the church: approachable, helpful, and centered around connection.

‣ PROCESS
I started by mapping out the core features the app would need, focusing first on user flows for online giving and Bible study searches. I sketched out wireframes to establish simple, clear navigation paths—making sure the most important actions were never more than a few taps away. In the design phase, I used a soft, welcoming color palette inspired by Vineyard’s existing branding, incorporating clean typography and plenty of open space to keep the interface easy to read and navigate. I also integrated geolocation features to help users find Bible studies nearby, and made sure the giving portal was streamlined and secure. Throughout the process, I kept user experience at the center—testing layouts to make sure the app stayed intuitive for people of all tech levels.

‣ RESULT
The final app is a clean, welcoming digital platform that strengthens community connections while making important church resources easier to access. It reflects Vineyard Church’s heart for outreach and fellowship, and shows my ability to combine thoughtful UX/UI design with mission-driven functionality.
