Cross of Christ Lutheran Church
Campaign Purpose
Cross of Christ Lutheran Church in Broomfield, Colorado, partnered with Walsh & Associates to begin with a Feasibility & Planning Study. The input gathered from members helped leadership understand their priorities and support for addressing the church’s facility and financial needs. The encouraging results laid the foundation for their Faithful Stewardship: Strengthening Our Future capital campaign to fund essential maintenance and renovations while reducing debt, all in support of the congregation’s ongoing ministry.
Maintenance & Renovation
The campaign addressed important facility needs, supporting renovations and essential maintenance to help preserve and improve the church’s spaces for worship, fellowship, and congregational life. Caring for these resources will help ensure Cross of Christ can continue welcoming its community and carrying out its ministry.
Debt Reduction
Reducing the church’s debt was another key priority for members. Walsh helped them understand that a campaign creates the opportunity to strengthen a church’s financial foundation and enables more resources to be directed toward the mission God has entrusted to them.
Campaign Success
Cross of Christ’s response exceeded expectations, with the congregation pledging more than $1.37 million, 137% of its $1 million goal. Pastor Kathy was thrilled by the generosity and commitment shown by the congregation. This remarkable response reflects the spirit of a faithful Lutheran community, united in gratitude for God’s blessings and eager to support the church’s ministry for years to come.
