SUMMARY:GoodWill Event
DESCRIPTION:Have you got questions about Wills\, Probate & Power of Attorneys? Have you got no idea how to plan or pay for a funeral? Concerned about the eco nature of your death? Want to know about ‘Swedish Death Cleaning’? Slightly concerned your cat might eat you if you die alone? (no seriously!) \nWe’ll tackle all this and more at our ‘GoodWill’ event. \nThey say that there are two things in life that are inevitable\, death and taxes. However\, it has been proven by large corporations and a smattering of celebrities and MPs that taxes can be avoided; death\, on the other hand\, is a 100% guarantee. Why\, then\, is it still such a taboo topic? \nAt this event you’ll hear from a funeral director\, a solicitor\, a death education specialist and others in the industry and you’ll be able to ask any questions you may have about anything from funeral planning to leaving a bequest to your church\, whatever you want to know\, we’ll have the answers. \nCome along for a surprisingly light and informative event\, we promise it won’t be weird! \nThis workshop will be running on three different dates in three different locations. Please choose the one that is most convenient to you. \nRefreshment will be included. \nClick here to book this event. \nLisa- Jayne Lewis – Stewardship and Giving Advisor \nLisa-Jayne helps church leaders to think about how they can preach and teach about money\, how churches can find ways to increase their income\, find grants and think about regular giving and  financial stewardship as part of our Christian discipleship.
