The Estate and Gift Planning Seminar is designed to assist pastors and laypeople with their estate and gift planning needs. In this seminar we will answer important questions regarding estate taxes, probate expense, trusts, guardianship of minor children, selection of personal representatives, and how to create a Christian Will for little or NO cost. Our goal is for every Wesleyan family to have an estate plan designed to provide for the needs of their family and for the work of building the Kingdom. You can schedule a private consultation to discuss your estate planning needs and complete an estate planning data guide.


Financial Planning - Developing Your Financial Road Map
The Financial Planning Seminar is an opportunity to present proven methods for sound financial planning from a biblical perspective. This seminar is for people of all ages and at all stages of their financial journey. The goal of this seminar is to teach people of faith how to be financially fit so they can live the generous life and fund the fulfillment of the Great Commission in their local Wesleyan church.



"Both financial planning and estate planning
need to begin at an early age. They are
dynamic in nature and to procrastinate
in either area is poor stewardship."

Ron Blue - Generous Living

The Wise and Foolish Builders - Matthew 7:24-27

 "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."


REAFFIRMING OUR COMMITMENT TO SELFLESS LIVING -
Pastoral Letter to the Eleventh North America General Conference
of The Wesleyan Church given by Dr Earle L. Wilson

"Self-interest has become the dominant and pervasive force shaping both character and culture.We have made a shift from the "self-made man" of the previous century, to the "man-made self" of this century.Individual self-interest is now overriding the "common good."The Wesleyan commitment is a commitment to simple living,reflected in Wesley's "make all you can, save all you can, give all you can" philosophy.Christ is the center of the self-giving life.If Christ is at the center of our being, then the terms "self-giving," "self-sacrifice," and "self-death" become front and center of our vocabulary.Selfless living will be reflected in our stewardship.John Wesley taught that spiritual maturity and financial stewardship go hand in hand.We live most simply so we can give more freely."
