Do Right, Love Goodness, Walk Humbly with Your God. - Micah 6:8

Faithful Legacy

We are pleased that you are taking time to consider your legacy - and the legacy of our Catholic faith.

Each of us has been blessed by God and entrusted with many gifts from Him.  We are all called to receive God's gifts gratefully, to cherish and tend these gifts, to share them in justice and love with others and to return them with increase to the Lord.

Part of our responsibility as stewards of God's gifts includes what is sometimes referred to as our "final act of stewardship" - the creation of our estate plan.  Our estate plan is part of our legacy, enabling us to use those gifts that have been given to us to provide for our loved ones in the future.  We also have the opportunity to give witness to the importance of our faith and express our gratitude to God by making a gift to the Church that strengthens our parish for future generations.

                                                         

         

  The Catholic Community Foundation of the Diocese of Cleveland is also a resource for you in the planning process.  Please contact Lauren Gannon at 216-696-6525 x4200 or at Igannon@catholiccommunity.org to request a free printed copy of the Catholic Estate Planning Recordbook or to request a confidential conversation about ways you can remember our parish in your estate plan.  The foundation can also help our parishioners who want to establish Donor Advised Funds, Charitable Gift Annunities and Permanent Named Funds that benefit our parish or other ministries of the Diocese of Cleveland.                                  
         

 

If you have made a decision to include our parish as part of our estate, thank you!  We recommend that you work with your advisor to accomplish this.  You will need to provide your adivsor with some specific information, such as the following bequest language:

In gratitude for all God has given to me, I give (specify dollar amount, percentage of estate, or description of asset) to Holy Family Parish, 3450 Sycamore Drive, Stow, Ohio, 44224, Tax ID# 34-0768866. 

Please consider letting the parish know of your plans.  We would be grateful for the opportunity to thank you. CLICK HERE to download our Legacy Gift Intent Form.
