RIVER OF LIFE SOCIETY
Planned Giving
Friends of Historic Second Church has established the River of Life Society to acknowledge those individuals who have provided us with a legacy gift.
The River of Life is a striking feature of the Tiffany Pastoral Window (1917), and signifies the continuity of life which is a fitting way to acknowledge that a donor’s contribution will live on into the future. Society members will receive honorary life membership in Friends and will not be required to pay annual membership dues. Special events will be planned for members of the Society.

Create your lasting impact for future generations.
What better way to make sure that the stained glass windows and Bartlett murals at Second Presbyterian Church will be maintained and enjoyed by future generations than to provide a legacy gift?
Making a bequest to Friends was an easy decision. Through the years, I have greatly enjoyed sharing the art and architectural treasures of Second Presbyterian Church with our visitors. A planned gift is my way of helping to ensure that these treasures will be preserved and will always be here for future generations to enjoy and appreciate.
