A legacy gift is a planned, future donation to FPC. These are planned gifts arranged now but given later, usually through a will, trust or estate plan, life insurance, real estate, highly appreciated equities, or retirement assets. Legacy gifts leave a lasting impact on the church beyond a donor’s lifetime.

1835 Legacy Society
To celebrate our rich history of serving for over 190 years, FPC created the 1835 Legacy Society to recognize any person(s) who has designated FPC Marietta as a beneficiary in their life insurance, IRA/401(K), will, trust, or estate plan. A well-planned legacy gift is best made while you are able to collaborate with FPC to properly design and communicate in writing how your legacy may be preserved for you and your family.

Join the 1835 Legacy Society. View each of these following steps in details in our Legacy Gift brochure.

Step 1 – Learn: More than just a transaction, planned giving can continue energizing our missions and ministries in perpetuity. Legacy gifts include personal, financial, or real assets that may be the largest most impactful donation of your lifetime.

Step 2 – Design Your Gift: Planning your gift may enable you to send more to ministry or to protect more future value for you and your family.

Step 3 – Impact the Future: Making a planned gift will prepare and equip future generations to continue FPC’s vital ministries.

Step 4 – Share Generosity: Complete the Letter of Intent for a Planned (Legacy) Gift to preserve your intention for a legacy gift and provide direction to your family and FPC.
