Hope Presbyterian Church
In 2006, Hope Presbyterian Church moved into a beautiful new church in Omaha, Nebraska. This church finally provided the faith family with a proper home. But, as with any home, that home came with a cost. For the Hope community, that was nearly $2 million in debt on a 20-year mortgage. The community diligently paid off more than $1 million of the debt, but these payments limited the church’s ministries. Church leadership partnered with the Steier Group for Our Hope, Our Future, a debt reduction capital campaign. By raising funds to take care of a big portion of the debt, Hope Presbyterian could save on interest payments and more quickly retire the debt. The small community joined together to support the capital campaign, raising 137 percent of the fundraising goal.
“The test of satisfaction is often seen in repeat business. I can say confidently that we will be repeat customers of the Steier Group and that our team highly recommends them to any church in need of raising capital for their ministries.”
– Rev. Dave Matsumura, Pastor, Hope Presbyterian Church
