Campaign Forward | September 2020 |
Campaign Forward | May 2020 |
Update | November 2019
On behalf of the Campaign Forward Committee, we want to provide an update on renovations to the Sanctuary Building, which have been funded by the Capital Campaign we undertook together several years ago, and to offer thanksgiving for the work done thus far.
As you may remember, our Capital Campaign arose from the recognition that our historic Sanctuary Building was in need of significant exterior and interior repairs to make it safe, secure, and welcoming for this and future generations. In 2014, we began to discern whether and how to proceed with a Capital Campaign, which culminated in 2016 with a pledge drive to raise funds. Our Capital Campaign was based on the theme “Imagine More,” drawn from Ephesians 13:19-20. We set a goal of $2.7 million, and ultimately raised $2.3 million through pledges from individuals and families within our congregation and from the Memorial Church Fund

FULFILLED PLEDGES | FAITHFUL GENEROSITY
To date (11/2019), 113 pledges have been completed in full! This is a magnificent accomplishment, and we are grateful for the generosity of each of these members. We anticipate that less than 10% of the total amount pledged ultimately will be uncollectible, another notable achievement. We expect the remaining pledged funds to come in over the next several months, a testament to the faithfulness of our church family. In addition, we are continuing to receive gifts for the campaign, including a recent contribution in memory of a beloved church member, and a large pledge from a family with deep ties to Duke Memorial.
