Bless Others Through American Bible Society

Change is one thing that’s certain, and it represents an opportunity for you to review your plans:

• Tax laws changes. You may want to avoid paying unnecessary taxes and touch other lives with the savings.
• Children gain financial independence from you. Consider updating your will(s) and encourage others who may need your help.
• Retirement. This is a good time to review your asset mix and consider charity for your income needs.
• Sell a business or appreciated property. Look for ways to avoid capital gains taxes and turn the capital gains into income.

We are committed to helping you review your plans so that you and your family may achieve your goals while supporting the Lord’s work. Our knowledgeable staff members provide free, no-obligation consultations to help you wisely reassess your plans. We can help you review your will and your mix of assets, as well as how they are titled.  Our staff also can help you assess ways to increase your level of income or avoid income-tax penalties at death.
