5. Reflect the Love of Christ by Reaching, Loving, Caring CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT C. 12. 05. g. The Congregation Council will use the following procedures when a non- designated donation, gift, offering, or bequest is received by Resurrection Lutheran Church. 1)For purposes of this section, gifts are designated if they are received through bequests in wills or living trusts, designations of retirement or pension plans, assignments of life insurance, charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, assignments of certificates of deposit, transfers of property such as cash, stocks, bonds, and real estate, or other tangible assets, and are specifically assigned to the Mission Endowment Fund of Resurrection Lutheran Church or designated for a specific purpose by the donor. A non-designated gift has no such designation and is proffered to the church for any purpose decided by the church. This gift is normally received in some form of immediate liquidity such as cash or check.
