Abstract

Congregation data management and information dissemination at GPIB ATK Ambarawa face challenges due to reliance on Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and physical archives, resulting in delayed document retrieval, potential data duplication, and limited information distribution. This study aims to develop a web-based church information system to improve administrative management and access to congregational services. The research employed the Research and Development (R&D) method through seven development stages, supported by observation, interviews, and literature review. The system was developed using PHP, Bootstrap, and MySQL with a client/server architecture and role-based access for administrators, church staff, and congregation members or sympathizers. Key features include worship schedule management, worship orders, congregation news, digital archives, and feedback submission. Black Box Testing confirmed that all ten functional testing scenarios were valid. Furthermore, usability testing involving 50 respondents achieved an average score of 86%, categorized as very good. These findings indicate that the system meets the tested functional requirements and receives positive user acceptance. Therefore, the web-based church information system has the potential to support more structured, accessible, and efficient church information management and dissemination.
