Background

Tezera Yared Ministries is an Addis Ababa ministry built around the Bible teaching of Rev. Dr. Tezera Yared. His messages on faith, healing, prayer and purposeful living reach people through an audio sermon app, gospel television, an official video channel, printed books, and the ministry's own events and projects.

DreamTech delivered three pieces for the ministry: this website, the Rev. Dr. Tezera Yared sermon app for iOS and Android, and the logo. The app serves people who already listen every week. The website has to welcome first-time visitors, explain who the ministry is, and point each one to the channel that suits them.

That made the brief part publishing, part wayfinding: the calm authority of a well-edited magazine, combined with the practicality of a directory for teachings, books, gatherings and giving.

Challenge

The ministry needed one clear destination for its message, media library, events, books, projects, and giving journey.

Teaching spread across many channels

Sermons lived in an app, on television and on a video channel. Without one page tying them together, a newcomer had no obvious place to start.

A growing shelf of books

Rev. Dr. Tezera Yared's books, including Amharic titles, needed to be presented as a library worth browsing rather than a scattered set of mentions.

Giving that stays within reach

Supporters needed a dependable route to give from anywhere on the site, without that request crowding out the teaching itself.

Sections that keep changing

Events and ministry projects come and go, so those areas had to accept new entries without a redesign each time.

Methodology & Approach

We approached the site as an editorial product. Before designing screens, our team listed every type of content the ministry publishes and where it already appears, then decided what the website should host and what it should route to.

From there we set a visual language that lets long-form teaching breathe: dark backgrounds, generous spacing, serif display headlines and a clean sans-serif for reading. Inner pages share one rhythm of headline, short introduction and labeled cards, so visitors learn the layout once.

  • Content inventoryMapped teachings, books, events, projects and giving into a six-item main navigation.
  • Channel routingChose what to host on the site and what to link out to, so the website complements the sermon app instead of duplicating it.
  • Phone-width checksReviewed every layout at mobile size first, so teachings and giving work just as well on a phone as on a laptop.

Solution

We designed a content-rich ministry website with strong storytelling, clear navigation, and dedicated paths for teaching and engagement.

An editorial home page

A large serif headline about life in Christ leads the home page, followed by a short summary of the teaching and two clear choices: explore teachings or read the ministry's story. A portrait panel beside it carries a brief ministry message.

Sermons and media hub

A dedicated Sermons & Media page introduces the teaching topics, then sends listeners to the format they prefer.

  • Ministry app for audio sermons on iOS, Android or the web
  • Gospel television with worship, prayer and live programs
  • Rev. Dr. Tezera Yared's official channel for teachings and broadcasts

A books library

Published works sit on a bookshelf-style display with full covers, so readers recognize a title before they open it.

  • Covers shown as they appear in print, including Amharic titles
  • Room for new titles as they are published

Give button in the header

A high-contrast Give button sits at the top right of every page, next to site search, so support is always one click away.

Events and projects sections

Programs, gatherings and ministry initiatives each get an area built from reusable cards, so new items slot in without layout changes.
