I am the current Council President at Light of Christ Lutheran Church, working with your consultant for the last four weeks through our Readiness Assessment process. I just wanted to affirm what a positive experience it has been and how much we have appreciated having him onsite to guide us and support us. It has been clear to me that not only is the consultant very knowledgeable and skilled in his job, but he also truly enjoys his work – and it shows! Again, I have so appreciated being able to count on him through the process of conducting 17 readiness gatherings, and I’m grateful for the services provided by James D Klote & Associates.

Carmel Lutheran Church kicked off its ‘Hearts Compelled To Share’ capital campaign in record style. As of January 25th just 73 families of the more than 900 in the church had already committed $3.75 million dollars. That total represents not only the best kickoff to a campaign at CLC, it also represents the best campaign in total even though only 8% of the congregation has pledged so far.
The previous best campaign was just four years ago when CLC collected a total of about $3 million in pledges from over 425 donors.
