Planned Giving

Your legacy gift to Grosse Pointe Memorial will help sustain and grow our ministry for generations to come. Legacy giving isn’t just for those with great wealth or financial expertise – it’s for anyone with a generous heart who wishes to make a lasting impact.

By including GPMC in your will, estate plans, or through current assets, you ensure the vitality, growth, and Christ-centered leadership of our church. These gifts are a powerful way to support the mission and values you hold dear, even beyond your lifetime.

Your legacy can be a light by the lakeshore – guiding and inspiring future generations in faith, service, and community.

The Newberry Legacy Society

In 1927, Truman and John Newberry generously funded and built Grosse Pointe Memorial Church’s beautiful neo-gothic Sanctuary in honor of their parents. Their generosity along with so many others have left a legacy of faith and ministry that continues today. The Newberry Legacy Society includes members who have self-identified that Grosse Pointe Memorial Church is included in their estate plans. Join us as we leave a firm foundation for ministry in the future!

You may join the Newberry Legacy Society, a planned giving program, by naming Grosse Pointe Memorial Church:

In your will or trust
As a reminder beneficiary of an IRA or other retirement plan
As a beneficiary of a life insurance policy
As a remainder beneficiary of a charitable gift annuity or trust
As a lead beneficiary of a charitable lead trust

Whether you join the Society or wish to remain anonymous, your future gift will help ensure that Grosse Pointe Memorial Church will continue to provide “a light by the lakeshore” and a witness to God’s love for our world.
