BEQUESTS
Your Will assists you to fulfil your responsibility to manage the material possessions that the Lord has entrusted and blessed you with in a Christian manner. Having an up-to-date Will makes certain that your desires and needs, and the special needs of your family and loved ones, are met. A bequest through your will is a popular and flexible way of planning a deferred gift to Lutheran Media Ministry.
Your bequest to Lutheran Media Ministry can be:
-
A specific amount of money
-
A percentage of your estate
-
A piece of real estate
-
Other specific items of property
"God is able to give you more than you need, so that you will always have all you need for yourselves and more than enough for every good cause." 2 Corinthians 9:8
A bequest to Lutheran Media Ministry is a lasting gift. It will help change people's lives through the sharing of the Good News of Jesus Christ.
When you remember Lutheran Media Ministry in your Will, you show your continuing concern for others and their eternal welfare. You will also have peace of mind knowing your desire to help connect people to Christ through media will be handled as you have instructed.
You also show your thankfulness to God for all that you have.
To make a bequest to Lutheran Media Ministry you can use the following wording in your Will:
I hereby give to Lutheran Media Ministry of 197 Archer Street, North Adelaide, South Australia.........(insert specific details of your gift here)....and I direct that the receipt of the Director, Lutheran Media Ministry shall be full and sufficient discharge to my trustees.
By including Lutheran Media Ministry in your will, you can support outreach through radio, television, video and the Internet long after you have gone to be with the Lord. As a result many more people can be reached.
During 1999 Lutheran Media Ministry found itself in a position of financial difficulty on several occasions, wondering how it was going to keep going with its financial commitments. Pastor Richard Mau as always, encouraged the staff to pray about the situation and to have faith that it would work out.
On each occasion God answered our prayers within days. Members of the Church had "willed" a gift to Lutheran Media Ministry and these arrived when they were most needed. We received $28,370.00 in bequests in 1999 and many others since then.
We encourage you to seriously consider leaving a lasting gift to Lutheran Media Ministry. It will help Share Jesus with your fellow Australians.
