Are you reviewing and updating your estate plans?
A gift through your will is one way to remember St. Peter’s; a change in beneficiary is another way that does not require an attorney. If you have not reviewed your will in several years or do not have an advanced Care Directives, now is a great time to consider updating those documents.
