If you look around at church website providers who offer a content management system, you will notice they all charge a monthly fee. This is not something unique to Mychurchwebsite.com.
 
You are basically renting the use of the content management system we have put together with all its features (ie. advanced calendar, sermon manager, etc). Without the use of the content management system you would not be able to easily update any content, calendar items, audio/video files, etc onto your site. The monthly fee also enables us to offer upgrades, support, and maintenance of the content management system you are using, since there are many software and security updates being released all the time behind the scenes.
 
We realize that churches right now are on a tighter budget so we do offer the ability to customize a lower monthly plan for you if necessary. For instance, if you want the premiere package but all you want to use is the sermon manager software and no other pieces of software (like online giving, event registration, etc), we can offer you the PRO package price. When requesting a lower monthly package price, just let us know which features you will be using and which ones you will not. This way we can determine what price to quote you.
