QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Of the Special Gifts Campaign
Celebrating a Gift of Leadership
Rev. Dr. Ralph P. Ley and Rev. Dr. Frederick R. Trost

WHY IS THE SUCCESS OF THE CAMPAIGN SO IMPORTANT?  

A successful Campaign will allow us to honor Dr. Ley and Dr. Trost appropriately for their extraordinary commitment of ministry to the Wisconsin Conference and United Church Camps, Inc.  It will also provide the necessary funds to meet the needs for new facilities and development at our outdoor ministry sites and at the Conference Center .  

WHY ARE PLEDGES SOUGHT RATHER THAN ONE-TIME GIFTS?  

One time gifts will not be sufficient to attain our minimum goal of $500,000, intermediate goal of $750,000 or our challenge goal of $1,000,000 for the Special Gifts Campaign.  Pledges are encouraged over a period of 3-5 years.  The Campaign depends on generous stewardship based on a commitment to Christ.  Payments for the Campaign may be made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually or any other way you prefer.  

WHAT SHOULD BE MY RESPONSE?  

Everyone will be challenged to consider a “suggested asking figure” for the Special Gifts Campaign and should then base their gift according to their response to God’s love and blessings.  We are all asked to examine our hearts, our situation, and our commitment to Christ’s church as we make our individual decision of support for the Special Gifts Campaign.  Plan your gift at the highest possible level.  Please keep in mind that this is your opportunity to pay tribute to Dr. Ley and Dr. Trost and to recognize their gift of leadership.
