I am a lifelong Anglican and have been a member of Trinity Anglican since I arrived in Bakersfield in 2010. I now serve on several ministries.
Our JDK&A consultant is professional, organized, energized, committed, devout and friendly. He has truly integrated himself in our congregation, and when the day comes for him to leave, he will leave a hole.
Outside of our clergy leadership, I believe he is the most consistent with regard to his attitude and attendance. He brings order and calm to our church, and people now know him. They know he is approachable, and certainly an incredible resource for me and so many others in many arenas, obviously including our campaign. His experience is invaluable giving our church leadership confidence through this exciting time. God is truly working through 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.
