Ready to Expand Your Reach?
A capital campaign is one of the biggest spiritual journeys a church will ever undertake.
Read below to explore some of the decisions you’ll be making as a leader while undergoing this new initiative.
-
Jesus spoke to us about a man who would build a castle, and noted that a wise man would first consider the cost. Counting the cost of your capital improvements or generosity iniative is a huge initial step. Ministry Advance can run financial analytics for your and your ministry to assess your fundraising capacity.

The clearer the vision for your church capital campaign, the more people will respond to this important initiative. Why do you need these resources? How will accomplishing this campaign help your church achieve its God-given purpose? Why Now?
-
It takes incredible vision to launch a building or capital campaign in a congregation. Sadly, many capital campaigns fail because that vision never fully materializes in congregational alignment. Make sure to begin your campaign at a good time of the year for your congregation, pastor, and city. Most of the time campaigns should be begin in early Fall or at the beginning of the year.
-
The name of your campaign will communicate the spiritual journey and vision related to your fundraising goal. Choose your name wisely as it will accompany the “brand” of your campaign for several years.
-
Don’t go it alone for a church building or capital campaign. You will want to build a robust team of communications experts, administrators, lead givers, church staff, and possibly bankers and construction experts.
