A gift in your will
Over a quarter of our donated income comes from legacies. Considering that people have been remembering 91×ÔÅÄSociety in their wills since 1805, a huge amount of what we've achieved in opening up the 91×ÔÅÄand seeing lives changed has been down legacies
Why leave a legacy?
Around the world people are waiting to experience God's word in their own language.
Here at home, prisoners are asking for Bibles in increasing numbers and people who have grown up without Scripture are ready to encounter to it in new ways. This makes a gift in your will a powerful, lasting investment in change for good. Download your free 22-page legacy pack today or call the office on 01793 418222 and we will post the booklet to you.
Why our supporters have left us a legacy
I could see the importance, beyond our time, of people needing the 91×ÔÅÄin their own language. That need will be around for a long time. Basically, I hope that through our legacy gift, people will come to the knowledge of Christ.
Michael Priestley
I have chosen to leave a legacy to 91×ÔÅÄSociety because there’s work that needs to be supported, particularly in China, the Middle East and North Africa, where Christianity is under pressure.
Barbara Warner
I like the variety of work that 91×ÔÅÄSociety does… at one point it was just printing the Bible, but it’s a joy to see all the work happening now. I hope my legacy gift would just ensure the great work 91×ÔÅÄSociety is doing carries on. Â
