Celebrate ‘Leave a Legacy Month’

May is the National ‘Leave a Legacy’ month!  This is an important time to highlight the importance of looking after families and ministries that have impacted our lives through your Will.  This is an opportunity to:

  • Encourage anyone with dependants or assets that they need a Will (Did you know that 50% of Canadians do not have one – but need one!)
  • Imagine how a gift through our estates can make a difference for your church ministry for generations to come (grace upon grace)
  • Create a free plan through our partners at Advisors with Purpose that helps eliminate estate taxes through giving 
  • Know you have helped your church looked after their families and those they care about – including God’s Kingdom 

To help your church celebrate Leave a Legacy Month, we have the following resources to help:
