I currently serve as the Chairman of the Building Committee and serve as an Elder. I have been involved since day one with the consultant as he guides us through the process.
We feel very fortunate to have the caliber of person as he is to work with on day to day process. The consultant attends more services and meetings than anyone in the Church.
He is sincere, professional and a joy to work with. He offers encouragement and understands most of us have not been involved in a campaign of this magnitude.
He has endeared himself to our church and we all anticipate success.

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.
