Planned Giving through the Diocese of Nashville
Oct 20-26
Invitation to Give and Support the Diocese of Nashville
The Diocese would like to invite you to explore how your support can help the church have the resources it needs to share the Good News with future generations. Donations to the Church can be transformative. It can be your way to make your legacy Christ-centered and to apply biblical principles. Being intentional with your estate planning can also safeguard resources for your family, minimize taxes, and even provide regular income for your own retirement.
For those who are witnesses to the glory of Christ, the past, present and future are inextricably linked. For many, donating a portion of their estates is a remarkable way to help share the Gospel.
The Diocese of Nashville encourages donors to talk with their independent advisors about all gift options outlined by the Office of Stewardship and Development.
Please take a moment to go through our resources to learn more about how you can create a legacy through your estate plan.
At any point in your journey, the Office of Stewardship and Development is ready to assist you.
