‘We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.’

Psalm 78:4
Leaving a gift to Wycliffe Bible Translators through your Will offers a wonderful opportunity to make a lasting difference – helping people worldwide experience the Bible in their own languages.

There are also many benefits to writing or updating your Will and it’s the only way to ensure your final wishes reflect what you value most by taking care of the people and the causes you’ve loved most in life.

At Wycliffe, we are here to help you as you consider writing your Will, offering friendly free information, resources and support. Whether you are looking to simply write or update your Will, or you are wishing to consider leaving a gift in your Will to help transform the lives of those without God’s word in their language for generations to come.

Get started by following these three simple steps:

  1. Request or download your Gifts in Wills guide – all the practical information you need to start your Will and consider a gift
  2. Speak with one of our team, so we can help discuss through the information you’ll need and answer any questions you may have
  3. Write your Will for free – access a Wills service online, in-person or over the phone† and claim a Will that we have already paid for, to help ease the cost (with no obligation to leave a gift to Wycliffe).

The average gift left in a Will is enough to fund a Bible translation for two years.

Gifts in Wills have contributed to the fastest progress in the history of Bible translation – seeing Bibles and New Testaments together launched at the rate of two a week.
