100
years from now…
Would someone reading your will be able to tell that you were a Christian?
If
there is any writing that would indicate what are the most
important things in our lives, it most certainly should be our Last Will
and Testament.
In
it, we would naturally expect to find mentioned those people – family or
friends – who for whatever reasons were the most significant people on earth to
us. We would likewise expect to find
mentioned any institution or organization that was especially significant or
important to us in some way.
For
a Christian, it would seem certain that the Church and her ministries would be
on our special list. If not, something
must have gone wrong somewhere, or maybe we just didn’t think about it. Whatever the case, now would be a good time
to think about it.

F.Y.I. In the
recent past, St. Edward’s has benefited much by being included in the Last Will
and Testament of parishioners.
Unfortunately these estates have been used for repairs and paying off
deficit years. The result is that our
parish has no money in savings. Please
consider leaving your legacy to your parish.
