Legacy Giving
Once you have made provision for family members, a Legacy to the Church is an ideal way to honour God. A gift in your Will to your local church is one of the most valuable and lasting ways you can continue to support its mission and ministry within your community, expressing gratitude and thanksgiving to God, and helping to support the future of your local church.
