Most of us don't like thinking about death, and so would prefer not to make a will until - well, as late as possible. But actually it’s a really good thing to do, even if we feel far too young to think about it!  Because if we don’t and we die suddenly and unexpectedly, it can often create all sorts of problems and complications for other family members, especially if we’re married and/or have children.  The Citizens Advice Bureau offer helpful advice: www.adviceguide.org.uk/index/family_parent/family/wills.htm

The debt we owe

As a church St Paul's is indebted to former members whose legacies enabled us to break even in recent years when otherwise we've have ended up with a deficit.  Which raises the obvious question: would you consider leaving something to St Paul’s in your will? That way you invest in the church of the future, and bless the next generation of the St Paul’s family. There should be leaflets at the back of church with more information.
