Gift and Estate Design Testimonies
 Rev. David M. Hudson |
" With the financial stae fo this country in such disarray we felt it prudent to have the Stewardship Department of the UPCI to visit our church and teach a seminar on Estate Planning. This seminar is so relevant and well-presented that it had an immediate impact on our congregation. Pastor, you owe it to your church to have Bro. Stephen Drury, or any of the Stewardship representatives, to your church for this seminar. You will not be disappointed." | |

 Rev. Norman Paslay |
"We are at a critical point in the financial future of our culture. In that context, Bro. Drury was an outstanding resource to share with our congregation options for financial prudence and providential giving. Endowments will prove to be a tremendous resouce fo the future work of God. Without applying pressure, Bro. Drury was a master at presenting options that people can apply to their own lives and vision. He showed our people how to seek first the Kingdom and see all the things added to their estaet desires." |

Church Construction Testimonies
 Rev. Ron Becton |
"Three years after going with Zion Church Builders we are still happy with our decison. After looking at many different local and national builders we felt Zion offered the best solution for us. The good news is they kept it within budget and built our building in th time frame they had given us. We will go with them for our next project." | |
 Rev. Mike Williams |
"Both of our buildings were contracted through Zion Church Builders. Not only can I tell you that they built our new buildings for just over 1/2 of the square foot price given to us by local contractors, but I can also convey to you that they are an honest group of individuals that dot each 'I' and cross each 'T.' I can happily say that I would use Zion Church Builders in any future building project and I would recommend that you do the same." |
Capital Campaign Testimonies
 Rev. David K. Bernard |
"We interviewed several of the leading capital campaign consulting firms. All of them offer a similar program, and all of them likely could have worked in our church. Accordingly, the determining factor for us was the personality of the consultant (not the sales representative). It was very important for us that the consultant 'click' with our church. We were privileged to have Clark Dickerson personally run our campaign. He was received well by our committee, leadership, and congregation." |
 Rev. Ed Cantu |
"I was most impressed with Dickerson & Associates in that they adapted very quickly to our church culture. We were not asked to conform to their mold. I found Clark Dickerson to be nothing but professional in his approach and genuinely caring in his style. We never would have achieved our goals without their masterful help." |
 Evelyn Drury |
"Dickerson & Associates has provided the tools and direction we need to significantly develop the capacity of our fund raising program. The results we have already experienced are positively impacting the ministry at Urshan Graduate School of Theology." |
 Tom Velie |
"Dickerson & Associates provided New Beginnings with a thorough and comprehensive review of our development program. We are already seeing significant results." |
Church Loan Testimonies
 Rev.John Mullings |
"Our 28,000 sq. ft. Community Impact Center was by far the most daunting task I've faced in my ten years as pastor. So, having a partnership with a lending institution like ACCU who understands churches was a major plus. They were willing to work with us on loan terms and rates with which we could be comfortable, and they were responsive to questions and concerns throughout the building process. I definitley plan on working with them on future building projects." |
 Rev.Mitchell Phleps |
"Working with Americas Christian Credit union was a very easy process. They gave a much lower rate than the local banks and we were able to move into a building with substantial space. We were paying almost as much for rent as we are now for our mortgage." |
|

|
 Rev. J.D. Goodwin |
"We appreciate how quickly and efficiently our loan was handled. Our people are enthusiastic about how are project is going. It has been tremendous! You helped us save money as you brought our loan rate down from 11.5% to 6.95%." |

 Rev. Kent Elliott |
"Having approached the bank, which we have worked with for over 40 years, to purchase over 3.5 acres of property, we were told that they were not currently lending to churches under a certain level of giving units. The united Pentecostal Church Stewardship Department and Bro. Stephen Drury directed me to America's Christian Credit Union. It was a terrific experience, as they understood who we are, how giving works and made it easy for us, in just a few short months, to close on the loan." |
|
|
|
|
Rev. Michael McCormick |
"ACCU provided exactly what we needed for a church loan. They counseled us on what type, as well as, how much of a loan we should apply for. They were available to answer our questions whenever we called and they guided us along the entire process. I would recommend this company to any pastor or church small or large." |
