I just wanted to let you know how valuable it was for our congregation to have your consultant on-site for our combined campaigns. His unflagging enthusiasm and his keeping everything on track enabled us to raise so much more than we would have been able to do on our own. We shared an office so I saw how hard he worked, every day, on our campaign.
As a staff member, I’m extremely grateful that he was here. There’s just no way we could have done/survived this without him!

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.
