These leaflets relating to legacies, available in PDF format, are designed to raise awareness and give information to clergy, vestries and individual members of a congregation in the hopes that they will stimulate thought and prayer and encourage the leaving of legacies to the church.
They are not designed to give any ‘hard sale’ but are there simply to try and answer any questions and to respond to anyone who asks for information on leaving a legacy to the church. The resources are free to use and can be adapted to your local circumstances, as necessary.
