Why write a Christian Preamble for your Last Will and Testament?

A Christian Preamble is:
· A source of comfort to mourning family and friends. They are reassured that their loved one died in faith, sure of God’s promise of eternal life.
· A powerful message of love and encouragement, urging others to trust in Jesus Christ and strengthen their own faith.
· A public record of Christian love. Because a will is filed in probate court, a Christian Preamble becomes a public record.

Writing Your Christian Preamble
You can write your own Christian Preamble. Perhaps you want to include favorite Bible verses. You can offer your final prayers for loved ones, mentioning them by name and encouraging them to grow in faith.

Imagine the comfort, assurance and encouragement this personal message could offer grieving family and friends!

You many want to talk with the pastor about your preamble who can discuss Christian Preambles with you, share examples and, if you wish, provide a basic outline to follow.
