August is Make-A-Will Month: Create a Legacy of Faith
Aug 11, 2026
August is Make-A-Will Month, a timely reminder that creating or updating your will is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give your loved ones. A thoughtfully prepared estate plan provides peace of mind, ensures your wishes are honored, and reflects your commitment to faithful stewardship of all God has entrusted to you.
For many friends of Western Theological Seminary, a will is also an opportunity to make a lasting investment in God’s Kingdom. By including a charitable gift to Western in your estate plans, you help prepare future pastors and Christian leaders to faithfully serve Christ and His Church for generations to come. No matter the size, a legacy gift is a powerful expression of faith and a testament to the values that have shaped your life.
This August, we encourage you to take the next step if you haven’t yet created or updated your will. As you prayerfully consider the legacy you hope to leave, we invite you to remember Western Theological Seminary among the causes that have made a lasting difference in your life. Together, we can continue equipping leaders to proclaim the gospel and serve God’s people for years to come.
