St. Mark’s Episcopal Church

How do you engage in fundraising that prioritizes the importance of relationships in a faith community?

St. Mark's Episcopal Church is “hospitable to all and blessed to be building something beautiful for God in [their] neighborhood." We partnered with them to conduct a feasibility study to determine support for a potential capital campaign, and to learn what exactly it means for this community to build something beautiful in their neighborhood, and how they might truly live into their mission of being hospitable to all.

In our feasibility study, we witnessed an unprecedented level of engagement and excitement, as well as overwhelming support for a campaign. We moved into a capital campaign — Rejoice and Blossom! — to renew their worship and music, deepen their hospitality and welcome, inspire service and outreach, and create a space ready to adapt to future needs and opportunities.
