Plan for church website overhaul?

Anybody have any experience or tips for redoing a church website? Our church is looking to do that (perhaps move to drupal using the G&G podcast series!), and this is what I'm thinking:

Phase One: Allow congregation to voice their desires for the new website. In addition, see if there are any drupal experts, graphics designers, etc. that could help.

Phase Two: Look at results from Phase One and see if we should do it in-house or outsource.

Phase Three: Plan out website; design; code; Etc.

Phase Four: Show beta version of website to a few folks from congregation and get feedback.

Phase Five: Launch.

Phase Six: Reevaluate after a few months.

Those phases were just off the top of my head, but I'm curious if there is any other input from the G&G community.

Thanks!

I think you'll want to listen to Episode 80: Website Preproduction, and also the The Boagworld web design podcast (they are on a month long break, so a good time to try to catch up on relevant episodes).
