I am writing to say how impressed I am with your consultant. I have visited with him, observed his communication with people working on the campaign and with members of the church. He attends many functions and activities. One of the best was his participation at the auction for the youth mission trip.
I knew it was right when we selected your company. I know you are and should be proud of his abilities. He is professional, always has a smile, knows names, has a sense of humor, is energetic, is enthusiastic, and inspires others. He is liked by all who meet and know him.
With his help and belief in Gary Church, we will complete the debt and continue the mission.

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.
