Your kingdom legacy  

Members of Baptist churches now have the opportunity to have their wills written free of charge


LegacyLandingPage

 
Baptists Together has become a member of the National Free Wills Network, which enables us to offer to pay for a limited number of 'simple' wills through participating solicitors.
 
As part of this membership a new five-page legacy pack has been prepared to help church members plan the process of writing a will, and emphasise the importance of doing so.
 
There is no obligation to include a bequest to Baptists Together, though naturally the hope is that members will be able to do so.
 
Richard Wilson, Support Services team leader explained, ‘The vast majority of our funding comes through the faithful giving of people who share our vision for growing healthy churches in relationship for God’s mission.
 
‘Your giving makes a real difference. By leaving a gift in your will you can give something that will be a lasting legacy for the Kingdom.’
 

For more information, download a copy of the pack outlining the Will Writing Scheme here, or order a paper copy here. Visit the legacy page here.
