Is your church ready to receive a bequest? Are policies and documents in place which will guide and direct the congregation in managing, investing, and/or spending a bequest? Will a bequest cause the church to have its largest board meeting ever? The Christian Church Foundation works in the area of the stewardship of accumulated resources, helping churches develop policies, invest wisely, and encourage members to create an end-of-life gift upon their death. The Foundation’s mission is to Move Money to Ministry. Kirby Gould is Vice-President with the Christian Church Foundation based in Kansas City and works with many congregations in Mid-America.

This is the first in our series of Better Together Thursday presentations. Our wonderful workshop leaders who were scheduled to be with us at our Assembly agreed to go digital with us and share their knowledge via Zoom. Find the whole series schedule, and other Assembly information here.
