GIVE

Our God is a generous God.
Giving is an act of worship.

At Our Saviour’s we believe in contributing cheerfully and regularly as taught in 2 Corinthians 9:6-7. Giving supports all of the ministry inside and outside the walls of our building. We strive to honor the Lord with the first fruits of our labor as we are directed in Proverbs 3:9. 

We are called to pour love into our world as Christ pours loves into us. As Christians we tend to the needs of others when we share our gifts, talents and resources. Everything we have comes from God and belongs to God.

PLANNED GIVING:

Estate planning gifts are an impactful way to leave a lasting legacy. These gifts can be arranged with the help of an estate attorney.

HOW YOU CAN HELP: 
In considering your estate and charitable plans for the future, you may not only be thinking about how to help your family and save on taxes, but also how you might benefit the ministries of Our Saviour’s Church. Having an effective plan is an opportunity to distribute God’s resources in a way that honors him and blesses others with eternal results.

HOW DO YOU WANT TO GIVE?
A charitable bequest is one of the easiest gifts to make. You can create a bequest of any dollar amount, donate specific property or designate a percentage of your estate in your will or trust plan. If you wish to make a gift from your IRA or 401(k) plan, this can usually be done by filling out a beneficiary designation form provided by your plan administrator.
Bequests to Our Saviour’s, the official beneficiary designation should be:
Legal Name: Our Saviour’s Evangelical Lutheran Church
Tax Id #: 41-0840393
Address: 400 9th Street W., Hastings MN 55033
