At All Saints’ regular giving is used to fund everyday activities and to meet important financial commitments such as the Parish Share to the Diocese, building insurance, heating, and repairs.
A gift from your estate is different. All Saints' Parish will never use legacy gifts for everyday expenditure - and that's a promise. The Parochial Church Council (PCC) will spend your gift on a lasting project, or use it for a special purpuse. For example, a gift in your Will could fund the church’s ministry to young people, or contribute towards our Restoration and Renewal Programme, or improve the quality of worship. You can bequeath to All Saints' a percentage of your estate, a fixed sum of money, properties, land, or objects. When making or revising your Will, you are strongly advised to consult a solicitor. Please see the example wording Will Clauses below. To leave a share of your estate “I give _____ % of my residuary estate free of all taxes to the Parochial Church Council of the Parish of All Saints’ Houghton Regis in the Diocese of St Albans for its general purposes, and I declare that the receipt of an officer of the Parochial Church Council shall be a sufficient discharge to my executors and trustees.” To leave a fixed sum of money “I give the sum of £ _______ (pounds only) free of all taxes to the Parochial Church Council of the Parish of All Saints’ Houghton Regis in the Diocese of St Albans for its general purposes, and I declare that the receipt of an officer of the Parochial Church Council shall be a sufficient discharge to my executors and trustees.” |
