If Cadiz Methodist Church has been a cornerstone of your spiritual life and you have an interest in making an impactful gift either now or after your lifetime, gift planning can be a wonderful option that also offers financial benefits for you and your family.  Gift planning does not require considerable wealth; rather, it simply requires planning and also often requires the collaborative help of professional advisors, usually a financial professional or an attorney, as well as a representative from the church. 

The most common planned gift is a bequest in your will or living trust.

The official legal bequest language for Cadiz Methodist Church is: “I, [name], of [city, state, ZIP], give, devise and bequeath to the Cadiz United Methodist Church [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted use and purpose.”

Other planned gifts include establishing a charitable gift annuity, a charitable remainder trust, giving life insurance policies, or leaving the church a remainder interest in property.  Planned gifts can also be designated for a purpose or particular mission for the church.  Gift planning can offer significant tax benefits and often allow your family to receive a greater portion of your estate.  Please continue to visit this web site for more information as the Gift Planning for Cadiz Methodist Church is formally established.  You may also contact the church office for more information.
