About the Church Management System - CMS

This project has 2 sides of the user interface which are the Admin Side and the Public Side. The project has lots of features and functionalities which are commonly included in a Content Management System such as meta tags management and displaying the contents. The Admin Side is the side where the admin users manage all the data shown on the public side. These include blogs/posts, upcoming events, and system information. The admin user is in charge of populating the daily bible verse in the system which displays/is shown only on the scheduled dates. The Daily Bible Verse is shown at the Home Page on THe Public Side and if there's no verse set on the current date, the default welcome quote of the project will be displayed instead. On the Public Side, visitors can submit their appointment requests to the management. They will choose a type or category of appointment and fill all the fields on the request form. You can download the source code of this project for free and run this on your end so you could explore more for the features and functionalities of this Church Management System.
