st. mark's designated giving guide 2010

Dear St. Mark’s Partners,

I am convinced that IMAGINE is a GOD-INSPIRED MISSION! It is

certainly inspiring to see how St. Mark’s has moved steadfastly forward to

provide space to expand our mission. And God has inspired many of you

bring us to this point.

Evidence of our determination to follow God’s will is all around us. We are inconvenienced by the

construction and sometimes wonder when the mess will end. At the same time we are elated to be building

the kingdom of Christ. I, and others on the staff, have been praying and imagining all the exciting and

opportunity and thankful to everyone who made it possible.

with people of all ages, engaged in ministries of all sorts. But to do that we need to equip and furnish our

space, and that is what this booklet is about.

This IMAGINE Designated Giving Booklet features furnishings and equipment needed for us to utilize

our enlarged and beautifully enhanced space to its full potential. Please review the items listed and then

give toward those which have special interest and meaning to you. There are needed items related to all

areas of our ministries with a wide range of costs. We pray that people will invest at all levels according

to their ability and that all giving is from the heart – the heart of a generous disciple.

Read the giving guidelines at the beginning of this booklet and if you are still uncertain about what

you would like to donate or how to do it, please contact Kathy Toborg (350-4884) or David Hagstrom

(447-0100) for further assistance.

of us who love him (I Corinthians 3:7). Thank you for your continued partnership and support of St. Mark’s.

How You Can Contribute

54

To make a gift, please complete the commitment card enclosed and submit it to the church office along with your donation. If you are unable to include your

donation at that time, please submit it by February 28, 2011 or contact the office for other arrangements. Your timely support will allow us to order the necessary items so they are here when we need them.

If you wish to give something that is not in the booklet, we thank you for your kindness, but your gift will have to be pre-approved by the Designated Giving Team. Please contact Kathy Toborg at (319) 350-4884 for information.

For your record-keeping purposes, please know that your designated gift is a new gift to IMAGINE and will not be recorded as part of your initial IMAGINE response.

If, by February 28, 2011, an item in the Other Important Items or Additional Wish List categories has not been fully funded, the IMAGINE Capital Appeal leaders may, at their discretion, reallocate the monies given toward that item to purchase other Highest Priority items. Similarly, if an item is over-subscribed, the IMAGINE Capital Appeal leaders may, at their discretion, reallocate the excess monies given toward that item to purchase other Highest Priority items.

Keeping You Updated

The Designated Giving Team will keep the congregation informed as this phase of IMAGINE progresses. The items that have been funded and the running total of gifts will be communicated and displayed throughout the months to come.

We appreciate the prayerful consideration you’ve given to these requests. If you have questions or comments please contact David Hagstrom at 447-0100 or Kathy Toborg at 350-4884.

A Note About the Photos – Most photos contained in this book are for illustration purposes only and may not represent the exact item being purchased. Not all items are pictured.

How to Use This Guide – The items pictured correspond to numbered descriptions on the facing pages. Smaller items may be grouped. The pricing on those items may represent the cost of several items together.

A Note About Pricing – Each area of ministry within the church was responsible for establishing a list of needed items and then researching appropriate pricing for those items. While there is certain to be some variance in the final cost of items, pricing in this booklet has been carefully reviewed.

This booklet is for those who live generously and look for opportunities to give with thanks, joy and purpose. Throughout these pages we’ve described

furnishings and equipment that are needed for St. Mark’s new spaces so that they can be fully functional when we occupy our enhanced facility. The furnishings and equipment featured here have been well researched for function, quality, cost and aesthetics.

Areas of Ministry

Just as our mission story for expansion was divided into areas of ministry for the IMAGINE capital appeal, so are our interior furnishings and equipment needs:

• Reaching & Hospitality p. 6

• Worship p. 8

• Discipling p. 11

• Connect – Fellowship, Conference & Gathering Areas p. 12

• Children’s Ministry p. 14

• Youth Ministry p. 18

• Equipping p. 22

Each ministry area has a “Highest Priority” section that lists items that are viewed by the staff and volunteer leaders as essential to carry out our expanded ministry and mission plan. Donations for Highest Priority items reduce our loan obligations because we will not have to purchase these items with borrowed funds.

Something for Everyone

This phase of IMAGINE empowers you to show your faith in a personal way. You can designate your gift to a specific ministry or any item that is meaningful to you.

To better personalize your options, we’ve included items at different levels of support. The desired items encom-pass a wide range of costs – from $100 up to $250,000. In cases where multiple numbers of an item are needed, your gift may purchase one of the items or as many as you like, up to the total number needed.

For Example: The new worship center will need 321 chairs each costing $285. You may purchase a single chair or any incremental number up to the entire lot of 321.

The cost of the largest items (those costing $30,000 or more) will be divided into shares of $10,000. We did this to avoid receiving numerous smaller gifts that, in the end, would total far less than the actual cost of the item. A donor may purchase one share or any number of shares up to the total number needed to purchase that item.

For Example: The budget for an organ in the new worship center is $250,000. The cost has been divided equally into 25 shares of $10,000 each.

Another way we’d like to ensure there is something of interest to everyone is through the categories called “Other Important Items” and “Additional Wish Lists.” Perhaps something on these lists will speak to your heart.
