Transfer the Blessings

Do you have a will or a living trust?  Have you named a legal guardian for your children?  Who will act in your place if you ever become mentally incapacitated?  How will the blessings that God has entrusted to you be distributed after you go to heaven?  While nobody wants to think about death or incapacity, creating a plan to address these questions is an essential step you must take to protect yourself, your property, and your loved ones.

What is Risen Savior’s Transfer the Blessings Ministry?

Our Transfer the Blessings ministry is committed to providing our members the support and comprehensive expertise needed so they can wisely plan how they transfer their blessings to their families and the ministries they love through a Lifetime Plan for Giving.  The wise transfer and stewardship of these blessings to family and ministries can have an impact today, tomorrow and forever.  Our faith in Jesus gives us a certainty in eternity.  With the help of Transfer the Blessings, we can be just as certain about the way we affect the future for our loved ones!  Proper planning can also spare your loved ones of the expense, delay and frustration associated with managing your affairs when you pass away or become disabled.
