Bill joined the CGS team in 1973 and has directly implemented more than 200 church capital campaigns. A graduate of Penn State University with a B.S. degree in mathematics, he also holds the designation of CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER.
As a Partner and Senior Consultant, he uses his five decades of consulting experience to provide strategic direction to the firm and collaborative support to other campaign consultants. He has the unique skills to assist your church in the areas of tax-wise giving techniques, major donor cultivation, and team building. Bill’s commitment to you is simple: “I will coach your church as if it were my very own congregation.”
In addition to his extensive church consulting, Bill has wide-ranging experience working with other faith-based nonprofit organizations. He has provided counsel to capital campaigns ranging from church camps to inner city youth ministries to rescue missions. He served for 12 years as the Assistant VP for Planned Giving at Bethel College in Mishawaka, IN. Bill has also served on and advised numerous denominational Boards and Committees.
Bill has been married to Bonnie for over 50 years, has three terrific children, and three “perfect” grandkids. When he is not strategizing with other CGS team members or coaching his clients, you can find him somewhere outdoors – “drowning worms” on a quiet lake or in the upland fields with his hunting dogs.
