Please consider this a letter of commendation for the work the consultant has done here at St. Thomas. He is a pleasure to work with, is very organized and knowledgeable about fund drives. More importantly, his manner is friendly and encouraging. I respect his ability, and have come to consider him a friend as well. We will miss him when his work here is completed.

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.
