Campaign Consulting

Whether you are building a new auditorium, restoring a historic worship center, transforming an old parish into a contemporary worship setting, relocating to a new property, adding on to your current facility, or reducing debt to free up resources for ministry — CGS believes that one of the most important things we can do is listen. Because your project is unique.

One of the things we have learned from architects and designers is that more than 50% of ministry plans never get built. The reason is almost always the same — ministry leaders invest enormous energy designing their plans, but very little time designing a funding plan to match their vision. At CGS, more than 95% of our clients complete their projects while out performing self-directed campaigns by as much as 50%.

We’ve been doing this a long time, and we do not believe in high-pressure fundraising strategies. Our approach is built on mission, vision, values, and relationships — and that combination consistently delivers extraordinary results.

CGS serves churches and ministries across the full spectrum of the Christian tradition — Anglican, Baptist, Lutheran, Pentecostal, Wesleyan, Presbyterian, and beyond. We love the diversity of our work and since we serve congregations across different traditions, regions, and cultures, we are constantly learning what is working across the broader body of Christ. We bring those fresh ideas directly to your project.

Our team approach also draws on the expertise of multiple consultants so that you receive the best possible counsel for your specific project. As the ancient wisdom puts it: plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisors, they succeed.
