Timeless Giving Wills Kit for Church Leaders
The Book of Discipline instructs each United Methodist church to “emphasize the need for adults of all ages to have a will and an estate plan and provide information on the preparation of these to the members of the congregation”.
Every church, regardless of size or annual budget, can benefit from encouraging bequests and other planned gifts. Whether your church is hoping to start a legacy society or set up a permanent endowment fund, the Timeless Giving Wills Kit provides the tools to begin an important ministry to your congregation. Practically, it helps your church address the critical need for estate planning resources by providing educational and promotional materials, sermon suggestions, bulletin inserts, a wills survey and more. All can be customized using the cd-rom contained in the kit.
The Timeless Giving Wills Kit provides churches a plan for promoting planned giving through bequests while avoiding the “one size fits all” approach. All congregations, whether large or small, can refine the elements of the program to fit the stewardship culture of their church and the educational requirements of its members. In addition, you can tailor your wills emphasis efforts to best utilize the time and resources available to your congregation.
