UMR Communications helps your stewardship campaigns INCREASE. effectively.
Increasing a congregation's giving is always a challenge for any church. First United Methodist Church of Terrell, Texas, turned to UMR Communications to create effective materials to connect with the congregation. The church has served the community for more than a century, and its site is recognized by the Texas Historical Commission. By 2006, however, the building was in immediate need of repair. Every time it rained, the church's roof leaked, causing more damage and incurring more repair expenses. Church leaders decided to launch a capital campaign to raise funds to repair the roof and make other necessary renovations. In 2007, First United Methodist Church contacted UMR to produce printed materials for the campaign. Prayer cards, brochures and other materials clearly explained the need to church members, reminded them of the blessings the church brings to the community and invited them to prayerfully consider their pledges. With UMR's help, First United Methodist Church exceeded its campaign goal by more than 10 percent.
