You can help transform lives for eternity.
Your Will reflects who you are and the way you wish to be remembered. It empowers you to shape how your assets can bless your loved ones AND make a difference in the Kingdom of God.
Our how-to guide has the information you need whether you’re updating your Will or creating one for the first time.
When preparing your Will we encourage you to discuss the intentions of your Will with loved ones, and to seek professional legal advice from a solicitor. The Public Trust Office or a Trustee company such as Perpetual Guardian. The NZ Law Society and your local Citizen's Advice Bureau can help you find a solicitor if you don't already have one.
We recommend seeking legal advice -when you’re preparing or updating your Will, or when appointing an Executor/s, Enduring Power of Attorney or Power of Attorney. Your legal advisor can help you consider the most appropriate type of gift to include in your Will.
Personal circumstances can change, so it’s important to review your Will regularly to ensure it still reflects your intentions.
The best way to support OM NZ in your Will is with a ‘residual’ or ‘percentage’ legacy. Your legal advisor can ensure your Will is valid and clearly sets out how your estate is to be distributed according to your wishes and circumstances:
- Residual - remainder of your estate after taking care of your loved ones
- Percentage - a percentage of the value of your estate
There are other ways you can include a gift in your Will. If you’d like more information about these options please contact info.nz@om.org or phone: 09 928 0802.
Suggested wording for your Will:
