Here is an invitation from the Texas Methodist Foundation:
Dear FUMCD Congregation,
As we look toward the future of our faith communities, we are reminded that the ministries we cherish today are the fruit of seeds planted by those who came before us. We are currently living through a historic era of wealth transfer from one generation to the next. This wealth transfer presents a unique opportunity for us to ensure that our values and the mission of the church continue to thrive for generations to come.
I am pleased to invite you to a special webinar, Your Generosity Matters, designed specifically for individuals who wish to explore impactful ways to include the church and charities they love in their charitable estate planning.
Why Attend?
The landscape of financial stewardship is changing. This webinar provides tools to guide your estate planning and charitable giving and is designed to help you create a roadmap that honors your beliefs and values, prepares your estate plan, and impacts your community.
We will discuss:
Tax-efficient Giving: Strategies to support the church and charities you care about while maximizing benefits for your heirs.
Giving Tools: An overview of endowments, Donor-Advised Funds, and gifts that pay you income, with the remainder going to the church or other charity.
Expert Counsel: Navigating the technical side of estate planning with a heart for ministry.
Event Details:
Dates: September 10, 2026, November 5, 2026, February 11, 2027, and May 13, 2027
Times: 12:00 and 6:30 PM. All times CDT (sessions are the same content)
Location: Virtual (link provided upon registration - click below to register)
Whether you are just beginning to think about your estate or are looking to refine an existing plan, this program offers the expert counsel and leadership needed to turn your God-inspired vision into a lasting reality. We hope you will join us to learn how your legacy can help bring about the loving world God imagines.
With gratitude,
Justin Gould
