I write to express my pleasure with James D. Klote & Associates in our Sharing God’s Gifts Capital Campaign. In particular I commend the efforts of your consultant who worked tirelessly. His continual presence and experience helped St. David’s accomplish what has never been accomplished before in raising funds for our present and future capital needs.
Your consultant not only performed his responsibilities in the most complete and professional manner, but he became one of us at St. David’s for which we are grateful. He took great care with our volunteers, our Campaign visitors and Steering Committee. Such commitment speaks well not only of him as your associate but also as one who loves and is devoted to his calling. Thank you for recommending him to us.
We at St. David’s look forward to a continuing relationship with James D. Klote & Associates as we seek to share God’s gifts with one another and our community.

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.
