I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for the tremendous work your consultant has done for St. Timothy’s Anglican Church as we continue to ascertain the possibilities of both reducing our debt and renovating and adding space to our present facility.
The consultant has been very efficient and responsive, and I especially want to thank him for his counsel and leadership in helping us to raise the funds needed to bring our vision to reality. His advice was very much appreciated, and all of the timelines have been met. In other words, you have delivered what was promised, and then some.
An added benefit in working with J.D. Klote & Associates has been the realization that we are working with someone who is extremely familiar with the needs of churches and yet sensitive to the individual persons in the church who are asked to fund the campaign. The expertise and insight are appreciated and I would highly recommend you to any church that might be looking for campaign consultants.
Thanks again and I trust you will continue to enjoy success in your business.

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.
