Have you ever run out of time or budget to create custom graphics and needed some for your church? My design team are often be up against tight deadlines and can need a helping hand graphic design wise. Or you may be a small church or a church planter just starting out (you have a special place in my heart you kingdom entrepreneurs) and you don’t have the kind of support larger churches have.
You don’t have to reinvent the graphic design wheel every single time. There are many good reasons such as your designers being on holiday where you may need to use these free graphics that have already been created by churches and para-churches organisations.
Here are 13 top quality free church graphics I recommend:
Christian Pics
I’ve gotten access to five incredibly beautiful collections of free stock photos. All free. No sign-ups. Download them here.
(They also have a very budget friendly one-off super low rate under $50 to get all the stock photos in their library. They add 100 photos every month. Well worth checking out too).
NCL Creative
I love this site. It is every design hipsters design dream :). They have graphics for sermon series and some sweet motion graphics. Check out their website here.
Creationswap
I think this used to be called creativemyk.com, but it is now creationswap. They claim to be the number one free site on the web for church graphics. That is a big call, for me, it’s not about numbers, but about quality. They certainly have that and then some. Now they are trying to up-sell you to a premium paid model, but hey, there are still heaps of free quality graphics, motion graphics, videos, photos and much more here for you. Check out their website here.
Vintage Church Resources
They have kids graphics, artwork and sermon series branding and it’s all free. They say their mission is to help our mission (love that!) Check out their website here.
LifeChurch.tv Open
LifeChurch have been generously been giving away their graphics, motion graphics and many more resources for free for years. There are just too many to mention across all spectrums of creativity, communications and church leadership. Just because it’s free don’t think cheap or low quality. They give away the best of what they create. Brilliant! Check out their website here.
