St. David’s Episcopal Church
St. David’s Episcopal Church: who are they?
St. David's Episcopal Church is "on a mission to know God in Jesus Christ and to make Christ known to others.”
St. David’s gives over a third of its operating budget to both local and international outreach programs to help share the love of Christ with those who are in need. There is an energizing spirit there, and a lot of programs and activities to help their community build a Christ-centered life.
Fundraising, strategy + vision
St. David’s hired an interim rector after a long-term pastorate while they engaged in a call process. Transitional periods present opportunities to reflect on how things have been done, assess what has been working, and make plans for future change.
Our work with St. David's includes considering stewardship practices because when done well, fundraising provides opportunities to strengthen relationships, create a robust year-round ministry, deepen commitments and articulate a vision for the future.
Together, we are:
developing an infrastructure for donor record data segmentation
providing guidance in aligning data analysis with giving strategies and formation
examining individual and collective money narratives, as well as training volunteers for annual giving, at an on-site retreat
creating a plan for growth potential to prepare for annual giving
developing a plan for on-going tracking, education and management of volunteers
