How Churches Can Offer an Interactive Information Package to Their Visitors

October 17, 2024

Churches are more than places of worship; they are cultural landmarks that attract visitors eager to learn about their rich history and architecture. However, traditional methods like brochures fall short of engaging modern visitors. In this blog, we explore how churches can use interactive digital guidebooks through platforms like Reveel to create a dynamic and memorable experience. These solutions make it easy to share important information, engage visitors of all ages, and offer an accessible way to enrich their visit.

In this blog, we’ll explore how churches can use platforms like Reveel to offer interactive digital guidebooks that enhance the visitor experience, engage people of all ages, and share important information in a dynamic and accessible way.

1. Bring Church History to Life with Multimedia Content

Many churches have centuries of history to share, but it can be challenging to convey this in a way that captivates modern visitors.

By switching to an interactive digital guidebook, churches can bring their history to life with multimedia content such as videos, photos, and audio guides.

  • Audio Narration: Visitors can listen to narrated stories about the church’s founding, architecture, and historical events.
  • Historical Photos: Showcase images of how the church has evolved over the years.
  • Video Content: Explain religious artwork, architecture, and important moments through rich visual storytelling.

This creates a deeper, more immersive connection to the church’s heritage.

2. Offer Multilingual Information to Welcome Global Visitors

Churches often welcome people from around the world — but printing materials in multiple languages is costly and impractical.

Reveel solves this with automatic translation into 28 languages, allowing every visitor to access information in their preferred language.

A multilingual guidebook ensures that no one is left out due to language barriers.

3. Real-Time Updates for Events, Services, and More

Churches host a variety of events — services, concerts, weddings, and community gatherings. Printed schedules quickly become outdated.

A digital information package enables real-time updates, ensuring visitors always receive the latest information.

Whether it’s a service time change or a new event, updates are instant and always available.

4. Create Self-Guided Tours for a Personalized Experience

Interactive guidebooks allow visitors to explore at their own pace. Reveel makes it easy to create self-guided tours with multimedia content at each stop.

Visitors can learn about:

  • altars
  • stained-glass windows
  • religious artwork
  • historical artifacts

For accessibility, audio narration can trigger automatically as visitors approach points of interest.

5. Collect Visitor Feedback for Continuous Improvement

Reveel allows churches to gather real-time visitor feedback, helping them learn:

  • what visitors enjoy most
  • what can be improved
  • which content receives the most engagement

This ensures a continuously improving experience.

6. Promote Sustainability by Reducing Paper Waste

Digital guidebooks significantly cut down on printed brochures and materials.

Visitors simply scan a QR code and access everything on their phone — more eco-friendly, more convenient.

7. Engage Younger Audiences with Technology

Younger generations expect digital experiences. Reveel’s multimedia, interactive maps, and guided tours appeal directly to tech-savvy visitors.
