Middlebury United Methodist Church Endowment Fund  offers individuals many possibilities for giving

There are many means by which you can make a lasting gift to the Middlebury United Methodist Church through the United Methodist Frontier Foundation, Inc., including:

• Wills—you can leave specified items, a set amount of money, a percentage of your estate, or your residuary estate (what remains after all other persons and interests have been satisfied).

• Gift Annuities—these contracts between donors and the Foundation guarantee individuals lifetime income, with the remainder of the gift benefiting the church.

• Trusts—may be set up as part of a will (Testamentary) or may become operable during the donor’s lifetime (Living).  The Foundation is available to manage trusts and serve as trustee.

• Donor Advised Funds—you can make a donation now and then request distributions four times a year to provide income for your church.

• Estate Planning Preparation—we will help you consider the important individuals and institutions in your life and how you want your property to be distributed when you will no longer need it—think of this as our help with “doing your homework” before you meet with your attorney.

• Stewardship Education—our Lord said, “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”  We can help you get treasure and heart in focus.
