Campaign Update 10.29.25

Written By Jenn Johnson

Dear Friends,

 “Hear the unmistakable call of God to go forward.” Those words, first spoken at the founding of our diocese more than 50 years ago, still guide us today. The Go Forward Campaign continues that legacy—strengthening leadership, enhancing our sacred spaces, and investing in the future of our shared ministry.

Go Forward in Leadership

A $1 million endowment has been established to sustain the Diocesan School for Ministry, ensuring ongoing formation for both lay and ordained leaders across our diocese.

 

Go Forward Together – Beckwith Enhancements

With a goal of $2.5 million, over $1 million has already been invested in transforming Camp Beckwith—our diocesan “family room” on Weeks Bay:

  • Facility Renovations: Refreshed lodges and meeting spaces with new flooring, paint, lighting, and furnishings.

  • Campus Safety: New roofs for all cabins, improved lighting, and accessible walkways.

  • Program Enhancements: The new Holy Nativity Pavilion expands outdoor dining and gathering space for campers and retreat guests.

 

Campaign Progress

  • Total Pledges: $3,349,246

  • Paid to Date: $2,313,890

  • Pledge Balances Outstanding: $1,035,356

Thanks to the generosity of friends like you, the Go Forward Campaign is already making a lasting difference—strengthening leaders, enhancing sacred spaces, and expanding ministry across our diocese. Today, you can join us in taking the next step. Your gift, whether it’s your first or an additional contribution, helps ensure our ministries thrive for generations to come.

 

With gratitude,
