The
Will To Give....
People receive much satisfaction in the gifts
they make to the Lord's work. However, sometimes they face the dilemma
of wanting to help their church and other religious organizations
more, but simply do not have the means to do so. Making provision
through a will is an excellent way to solve this problem.
Through a legal will, you can designate a specific amount of money
or a percent of your estate as charitable
giving. Consider tithing (giving 10 percent) of your estate to your
church. Then, after you have provided for your family, leave the
remainder to Jack Hayford Ministries.
If your attorney has already drawn up your will
and you have signed it, consider adding a codicil stipulating that
a gift be left to Jack Hayford Ministries. ( a codicil is a minor
adjustment to your will.) Consider leaving a gift of property to
Jack Hayford Ministries in your will. Perhaps your children live
in another city or state and really do not need your home, farm,
or vacation property. Jack Hayford Ministries could benefit significantly
from a gift of property.
You may expect proceeds from your life insurance
to be your primary estate. If so, changing the beneficiary now to
be our ministry or another charitable organization can be a tax
benefit now and avert confusion later.
The
purpose of this presentation is to provide general information,
not legal or financial counsel.
On
any planned gift, consult your own legal or financial advisor.
