We Believe Campaign

Legacy Giving Goal: $15,000,000 We believe everyone can have a part – over 350 families have made Word of Life a part of their Estate Planning

Moreover, it is required of stewards that one be found faithful. 1 Corinthians 4:2

Often, the day we depart for glory is our best opportunity to leave a legacy. Estate planning can help you plan well for the people and ministries you love. Your legacy gift may provide the opportunity to make a larger gift to Word of Life than is possible during your lifetime. It could support a special project or continue your annual giving. It can also be given in memory of a loved one. Word of Life receives financial support through several types of gifts. Some gifts are regular and support ongoing ministry and missionary outreach. Some gifts are for one-time ministry special projects. Others are legacy gifts given through a will or trust. By naming Word of Life as a beneficiary, your legacy gift helps sustain the ministry and provides resources to expand Word of Life’s worldwide efforts in evangelism and discipleship. Your gift can also help to extend the reach of the ministry through the provision of Life Change Scholarships or missionary support. We had a wonderful experience with the will and estate planning professionals at PhilanthroCorp! They have the ability to ask thought-provoking questions we would have never thought about on our own. It was nice we didn’t need to justify our planning decisions with anyone. We were all Christians, sharing a like-minded faith. – Joshua and Kristen Peterson As you review the resources God has entrusted to you and explore different opportunities to give, would you prayerfully consider including Word of Life in your legacy plans? We can connect you with trusted ministry partners who can help you think through this process with a biblical worldview. They will help you design or update a plan for your estate attorney to implement so your legacy has an eternal impact.

Unrestricted estate gifts received over the course of the campaign will be directed to specific projects as determined by the President & CEO. Estate gifts also help Word of Life with ongoing long-term maintenance and upkeep of the facilities that have been graciously provided to the ministry.
