What We Can Do For Your Church

1

Digitize Your Media

Porthos Media helps churches digitize, restore, organize, and preserve important church media, including photos, slides, sermon tapes, VHS recordings, worship videos, bulletins, newsletters, documents, anniversary materials, oral histories, and community records. We turn fragile, underused church archives into accessible digital files that can support preservation, sermon libraries, church history projects, memorials, education, fundraising, podcasts, websites, and congregation outreach.

Podcast Production

Porthos Media can help churches turn sermons, teachings, interviews, testimonies, oral histories, ministry updates, and community stories into engaging podcast episodes that educate, encourage, and keep people connected. We handle the editing, cleanup, show notes, transcripts, publishing support, and podcast clips so your church can focus on the message only you can share.

2

Create Searchable Archives

Porthos Media can help churches turn scattered photos, sermon tapes, worship recordings, videos, bulletins, newsletters, documents, anniversary materials, oral histories, and community records into organized digital archives that are easier to search, share, and preserve. We can label files, create clear folder structures, add basic metadata, and prepare your church archive so staff, volunteers, ministry leaders, families, and future generations can actually find and use it.

4

Turn Your Media Into Social Content

Porthos Media can help churches turn digitized photos, sermon recordings, worship videos, oral histories, ministry updates, event footage, and community stories into short-form video content for social media, websites, newsletters, and congregation outreach. We create archive-driven clips, captions, descriptions, and content ideas that help your church educate, encourage, and stay connected with the people you serve.

Let's get preserving!
