Endowments
As Christians we are accustomed to giving regularly of our tithes and offerings. However many may not have realized that gifts can be given that will keep on giving long after we have gone to our eternal rewards. The Stewardship Department of the United Pentecostal Church International has made it possible for us to continue to support our local church and worldwide ministries while we live and after we are gone to be with the Lord.

Life Insurance Beneficiary Designation
Giving to Global Missions has never been easier. Now by making Global Missions a beneficiary designation on your life insurance policy (new or existing) you are blessing the Kingdom of God. Give a percentage, or a set amount.
There are four endowments that have been created.
Your gift will make a difference in the area or field of your choice:
Administrative Endowment The purpose of the Administrative Endowment is to permanently fund the administrative cost to operate the Global Missions Division, thus reducing the amount contributed from missionary accounts. Our goal is to have enough funds in this endowment to be able to totally pay for administration without any contributions from missionary accounts. The Global Missions Division will only use the interest earned from this endowment and the principal will remain in the foundation, continuing to provide funds for future use.
Evangelism and Leadership Endowment The Evangelism and Leadership Training Endowment was created so we can subsidize evangelism and overseas training. It is the goal of the Global Missions Division to evangelize the world. However, we need to realize the Great Commission has two parts go preach and teach. Along with evangelism we must teach our converts and develop them for ministry and leadership. Our missionary accounts are dedicated to funding evangelism and training, but it is not enough. We would be able to use the principal and interest from this endowment as approved by the Global Missions administration for evangelism and training opportunities.
Open Door Endowment The Open Door Endowment would allow Global Mission to respond quickly when a door of opportunity opens suddenly. Rather than having to appoint personnel and send them on extended deputation, we could place key individuals on location immediately while appointing and funding long-term missionaries. There are several fields that are closed to resident missionaries that could open in the future. We need to be ready to respond when the Lord opens these doors. We would be able to use the principal and interest from this endowment as approved by Global Missions administration when doors of opportunity open.
Wills and Bequest You can be a part of helping our missionaries by giving a gift in your will or Living Trust. By a Bequest or Living Trust, ministries that are important to you will be blessed and lives will be changed.
By stating in your will or Living Trust: I give to the Global Missions Division Administrative Endowment managed by the United Pentecostal Foundation, Inc., a Missouri corporation, 36 Research Park Court, Weldon Spring, Missouri 63304 (“Foundation”) the following property (“Property”)
Your gift will alter the course of lives in the future by helping missionaries lower their budget and reducing their time on the road. If you are interested in knowing more about the preparation of your Will and estate plan, or contributing to Global Missions endowments please contact Steve Drury, Scotty Slaydon or Eric Morley at 636/229-7900.
