Our church is 160 years old and is growing! The school has been an amazing ministry and is driving the growth. Now we are in major need of updates and new facilities- especially the school. But you probably know all this already.
I have four children who are either currently attending or have attended Immanuel Lutheran school. I was baptized at the church 52 years ago and it is deeply meaningful to me.
We are in the silent or advanced phase of our capital campaign and being guided by the Klote consultant. The purpose of this message is to thank you and your team for everything you are doing to assist us in our Campaign. Your model of having a full-time person living in our church community is a real point of difference. It seems like our consultant has been a part of our congregation for a long time!
I have had a chance to work closely with our consultant and I really appreciate his approach. We have had candid conversations about the campaign and I have learned a lot from him. He has been in my home on several occasions and I have enjoyed our time together. We have made calls together and bonded through the amazing experience of “making the ask” in an attempt to grow our church and school.
I know God has a plan for us and for Immanuel Lutheran. Whatever His will be done! I am glad his plan included your company and our consultant to assist us in our journey.
