Several years ago, if you would have asked me what the purpose of the conference Planned Giving and Trust Services (PGTS) department was for, I would have tried to give you an educated guess, but to be honest, I wasn’t sure exactly what they did. Since then I have learned a few things. Thankfully, I can give you a better description of why PGTS exists.

PGTS exists to assist members and friends of the church in providing for their family and God’s work through trusts, wills, gift annuities, and other special gifts. The conference arranges and pays for the services of an attorney for consultation and document preparation. Your family, Wisconsin Conference, Wisconsin Academy, or even your local church and school can benefit greatly from these arrangements.

Would you like to know more? Great! It would be my pleasure to answer any questions you may have.
