Planned giving is taking time now to plan a gift to St. Stephen’s United Church. The Legacy Gift Committee at St. Stephen’s United Church, along with the Gift Planning Office of the United Church of Canada, can help you arrange the most suitable gift to make a difference at St. Stephen’s United Church and ensure that the church will be here for future generations. Gift planning can serve both your current needs and your estate planning wishes. The federal government encourages gifts to the church by offering meaningful tax relief for charitable givers.
