 * Here’s the link to the website I am currently working on.
 * [http://emmauscenter.org/](http://emmauscenter.org/)
 * Is there code that I can put in to control the width of the font on the front
   page. I want it to match the width of the embeded video which is 800px.
 * Here’s an example of the code for one paragraph of text:
 * <p style=”text-align: center;”>Our mission for Emmaus Center is to create an 
   environment that promotes spiritual and personal growth for individuals, families
   and groups on life’s journey toward Christ.</p>
 * Is there something that can be included in the “text-align: center” that would
   limit the width of the text to 800px?
 * Thanks

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks for writing in! if you wish to achieve something like this: [http://prntscr.com/879657](http://prntscr.com/879657),
   so you can add the following code under **Appearance > Theme Options > Custom
   Css**:
 *     ```
       .entry-content p {
           width: 800px !important;
           margin: 0 auto;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope this helps!
 * Thanks.
