CATCH THE SPIRIT - Capital Campaign - Update
INITIAL RESULTS of our Capital Campaign Drive:

As of December 1, 2008, our pledged amount coupled with our non-pledge sources had totaled about $470,000. This exceeded the $450,000 estimated goal by our fundraising consulting firm way back in the summer when the economy was doing better. It was through everyone'ís faith and support that enabled the initial campaign to be a success.
Thank You!

Now we move into the next phase of our three year campaign.

2008-11 Campaign Catch the Spirit! Webpage

If you would like to contribute to the Capital Campaign, please mail your donation to Hamline Church, 1514 Englewood, St. Paul, MN, 55104. All checks may be made out to HUMC with a notation that it is for the Capital Campaign Fund. Everyone's generosity will help make the overall campaign be successful and ensure the future of Hamline Church for many generations. Thank you!
