Lutheran Church of the Cross
Endowment Fund

Every gift, of every size, makes a difference at LCC. Please make your gift today, and know that  your legacy will continue with the ministries of LCC.

As Christians, just as we give proportionately for the Lord’s work from our income annually, so we are encouraged to give proportionately from our accumulated resources as legacy gifts. The purpose of the Endowment Fund is to receive gifts and bequests which will be invested to produce income. Recognizing that some members of LCC might desire to leave a Legacy Gift so that our church can continue its mission, LCC has established an endowment fund. The gifts will be held in an on-going fund as a financial cornerstone of the congregation.
Gifts totaling over $250,000 have already been made since 1987 when the fund was established.

You can contribute to the Endowment Fund.

Gifts may be given as designated or undesignated in the following ways:

• Bequests (a designation in one’s will or living trust)
• Life Insurance proceeds (either through beneficiary designation or through a gift of the policy itself)
• Assignment of Certificates of Deposit
• Tangible personal property such as cash, stocks bonds or real estate
• Memorial gifts in the name of a family member or friend
• Charitable Remainder Trusts may name LCC as the beneficiary
• Beneficiary designation in an IRA or other retirement plan
• A cash donation given at any time is always welcome no matter the size

You can remember the LCC Endowment fund when you do your personal estate planning.

“Whatever gift each of you may have received, use it in service to one another…”
