How We Can Serve the Poor and Oppressed, and St. Catherine's Through Legacy Giving

When/Where: Sunday, September 20, 2026 / Parish Hall 

The Episcopal Community Foundation for Middle and North Georgia will  lead an informational session on the spiritual and material importance of supporting the poor and oppressed through legacy giving. Join us to learn how Episcopalians in our parish and around the Diocese are caring for the least among us as well as providing ongoing sustainability for St. Catherine's for many years to come. 

Many in our Diocese are familiar with the grants that ECF provides to parishes and their nonprofit partners. At this presentation, we will have a  chance to learn more about how ECF is able to not only continue this work, but also help St. Catherine's continue our good work in the future through legacy giving, which includes bequests, gifts of assets  and appreciated securities, gifts from tax-deferred funds such as IRAs, life income gifts, and more. Everyone needs an estate strategy, and estates of every size can make a lasting contribution to help the church  continue loving like Jesus.
