We met just before the 10 o’clock service in the Narthex of the Cathedral when you and the consultant first came to do your pitch for our Capital Campaign. Christ Church is a complex, and often contentious, congregation.
We have completed our Focus Groups and your consultant has been a marvel. He is a master at calmly steering us through potentially troubled waters, keeping us on track and on time, yet flexible enough to let people speak their piece without judgment. Everybody loves him!
He produces incredible amounts of information and feedback, plus has great suggestions and examples, yet lets us make the final decisions with Grace.
Thanks for sharing him with us. We may not let him leave!

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.
