bequest

When Jesus left this world, what comfort these words must have given to His disciples, knowing they would still be cared for by Him, beyond His earthly lifetime. And what comfort they still give to us, as we journey through life.

In a much smaller way, when each one of us leaves this world, we can also give comfort to those remaining – by assuring them of our love and ongoing care, through our Will.

Remembering the Zulu Missions in your Will is a ‘legacy of love’. Not only does it mean that your support of the missionary Church continues beyond your lifetime – but the work it continues is a fitting memorial to your Christian life.

More information on Wills and Legacies is available in our free booklet, Using your Will to Celebrate the Blessings of your Life. If you would like a copy, please contact us.

Types of bequest

There are several different types of bequest. As a guide, you may wish to consider the options described below.

However, since estate planning can be a complicated task, you are strongly advised to consult your financial or legal advisor before making a final decision.

A specific sum of money
This is the simplest form of bequest, but makes no allowance for the effects of inflation or any changes in the value of your estate. If you choose this option, you need to review your Will regularly.

A percentage of your estate.
This ensures a fair distribution among all the beneficiaries, regardless of any changes in the value of your estate.

The residue of your estate.
Whatever is left over after all taxes, liabilities and other bequests have been paid is known as the residue. You can bequeath the whole of the residue, or a percentage of it.

A life insurance policy
An existing policy, taken out years ago to safeguard a young family and no longer relevant, can be ceded to the Zulu Missions. Or you can take out a new policy naming us as the beneficiary.

Whatever you choose to leave and whatever the value, it will make a difference.
