The Increase ask
I have some good news! The Lord is leading me to take the next step in ministry. I’ll be working with students and sharing the gospel. As my commitment to ministry increases, it feels natural to reach out to my support team - those who are taking this journey with me -to ask you to pray about also increasing your investment in this Kingdom work. I have $300 monthly or $3,600 annually left to raise. I’ve seen God work so clearly over the last month – the people of God are giving out of faith and not fear. It’s been incredible to experience, and now I’m almost across the finish line! So, I’d like to ask: Would you take the next 24 hours to ask the Lord if He is desiring for you to increase your commitment of giving toward ministry? (wait for a response) Great! I will commit to pray for you over the next 24 hours as well. I'll reach back out with a phone call this same time tomorrow. Does that work for you?

Voicemail Script
Hi ____I was just calling like I said I would--I wanted to see how it was going in seeking the Lord on that challenge to increase your support. Feel free to give me a call back whenever it's convenient, otherwise I will try calling you again on (day). Have a wonderful day!

Join the Team Script
I'm seeking 12 people who would join my team at $100/mo. Would you consider locking arms with me and being one of those 12 that helps me cross the finish line?

Special Gift/Annual Donors Ask
Encourage those who gave under $3K annually to become a monthly, regular giver. Those who gave special gifts or annual gifts totaling to $3K or more last year, put forward another large gift challenge. Take their last year’s gift and increase it a bit. Then ask them to take the next two days to seek the Lord on how much He wants them to invest in this ministry in the coming 12 months. Set a day to follow-up with them.

Increase Ask + Names Ask
We know we aren’t meant to do this alone. Ministry is sustained through community – through MANY people offering their gifts – that's what makes it happen. You've been one of those vital people on my team for the last X years and I want to thank you for your partnership and remind you that you're building the Kingdom through your giving. My goal with this is to be able to invest deeply in those who are investing deeply in the ministry. And I want you to be one of those people.
Would you take the next 24-hours to ask the Lord if He would have you increase to an intentional gift of $150 a month?
(Yes, I'll pray)
Great, I'll pray for you as well during that time. Does it work for you if I give you a call tomorrow around this same time - to see what the Lord said to you? If they ask for more time, that's fine. But, keep the timeframes short; under a week, if possible. This avoids the task going into the "do later" pile in someone's brain.
You know there are many ways to support this work: prayer coverage, coming and serving alongside me, faithful financial giving, and connecting me with people who might be encouraged to hear about this ministry. As I was talking earlier about what I'll be doing, was there anyone the Lord maybe brought to your mind? pause for response
I'd love to connect with them. Could you put us in touch?
