Welcome to Lutheran Planned Giving Services
Thank you for your interest in Lutheran Planned Giving Services. Our hope is to serve you and your family with helpful information. We have an increasing number of friends at LPGS who now are benefiting from life income gifts, gift annuities and other plans. Thank you for taking the time to explore the benefits of gift planning.

Benefits for Family and Ministry

There are several types of plans. Many of these have wonderful benefits for the gift donors. Many of these families have enjoyed increased income and generous tax savings. You might start by meeting these friends. Just click on the picture and you can view each story.

Double My CD Return
Valerie is a retired high school English teacher. She has been a careful saver and has a number of certificates of deposit, but she has seen her income decline. More on Double My CD Return >>.

Capital Gains Tax Bypassed
Peter and Gail Williamson were nearing retirement. Over the years, with the help of their financial advisor, they made solid investments in securities and built a sizable portfolio. More on Capital Gains Tax Bypassed >>.

Easy IRA Gift
Barbara retired after forty years as a teacher. She had volunteered for many years with Lutheran Planned Giving Services. She had an IRA and was nearing the time to take her required payout for this year in the amount of $2,000. More on Easy IRA Gift >>.

Peace of Mind Gift Annuity
Many years ago, Clara Lehman bought a home. Since she was so pleased with the home, she decided to buy stock in the company that builds and sells homes like it. Over the years, the stock has increased in value many times, but the value has been volatile. More on Peace of Mind Gift Annuity >>.
