TRANSCRIPT

“Seventy percent of Catholics die without a will. And when they do, the courts decide.”

“They decide who receives your blessings… who raises your children in the faith… and where your life’s work will go.”

“The government takes its share — while the ministries you’ve supported in faith your whole life receive nothing.”

“Your legacy of faith — the schools that shaped you, the parish that baptized your children, the ministries that fed your soul — all left behind in the legal process.”

“But with just fifteen minutes today, you can start your will — one that protects your family and continues God’s work through the community you love.”

“Protect your family. Strengthen your faith community. Begin your legacy today.”
