PRESS RELEASE

For Immediate Release
October 7, 2016

Dallas, TX – On Thursday, October 6, 2016, following a synopsis of a six-week feasibility assessment and a twenty-minute Q & A period study by JD Klote & Associates, Inc. consultant Jim Collins, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to immediately move forward into a Capital Campaign. The campaign plan is to fund a five-element strategic initiative for the future including community outreach, eliminating debt and building a new fellowship hall.

Generations of this 117-year old church in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex are no strangers to expanding and building for the future. Their most recent project dates back to only five years ago when they dedicated a multi-million dollar education building.

At the conclusion of their meeting, many Board of Trustee members were heard discussing how excited they were to be entering into their second Capital Campaign in ten years and how ready they were to complete building out the campus while expanding community outreach.

The campaign will also be directed by James D. Klote & Associates, Inc. JDK&A, a full-time, on-site capital stewardship consulting firm based in Falls Church, Virginia, recently ranked the #1 church consulting firm in the United States by Volkart, a market research firm in Minnesota. Jim Collins will continue and direct the thirty-week First Church of Dallas Capital Campaign.

Klote & Associates is the largest full-time, on-site stewardship consulting firm in North America. For additional information, please contact the firm at www.jdklote.com or (800) 360-2315.
