“On the first day of every week, each of you is to put aside and save whatever
extra you earn, so that collections need not be taken when I come.” (1 Cor. 16:2 – NRSV)
“Think of us in this way, as servants of Christ and stewards of God’s mysteries.” (1 Cor. 4:1)
We are called to be “servants of Christ and stewards of God’s mysteries.” As stewards of God’s gifts, we look for ways to share them with others regularly – without fear! Are you finding it difficult to share your gifts—especially financial gifts–regularly as you watch and wait during these tenuous times in our history as a nation and a church? If so, you might consider making a life income gift. Yes, by giving a gift, you may have more resources available now to give regularly. Plus, you have the assurance of knowing that a larger gift will benefit your church and other favorite charities upon your death.
How? Through a Charitable Gift Annuity, which allows you to receive income during your lifetime, and to bene-fit your church and other favorite charities afterward. Charitable Gift Annuities can be established with a gift of $2,000 or more and the income rate is dependent up-on your age at the time of your gift.
For more information, please contact our office and we’ll be happy to run a personalized illustration for you.
