Planned Giving is an important component of stewardship at Johns Creek Presbyterian Church. This type of giving allows friends and members of JCPC to make significant gifts to the church through their estate plans. These gifts will allow JCPC to remain a vibrant hub for Christian education, fellowship, worship and outreach for many years to come--while also allowing future generations to build upon the generosity of those who came before them as they endeavor to give, go and live!

Reasons to Give
There's an old Greek proverb that says a society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in. This speaks to the essence of planned giving.
A planned gift is much more than just a substantial donation, it's a gesture of love. A planned gift shows how much you care--about this church and about the people it will serve in the years ahead. It's a way of giving back after you're gone, of sharing your good fortune with others you may never know so that they can be blessed by JCPC in the same ways that you've been blessed.
Imagine having an ongoing opportunity to develop new generations of Christian leaders, provide support those who struggle, and spread the message of Christ far beyond the limits of your lifetime--that's what a planned gift can do. And by making a planned gift, you set a wonderful example of loving God and loving your neighbors for others to follow.
We will always be grateful to those who came before us and for all of the great things that they have made possible at Johns Creek Presbyterian Church. Now it's our turn. We have been entrusted to care for the ministry and mission of this church so that it can be passed along to future generations and continue to make a difference within our congregation, across our community and around the world.
