The items held in a Trust and then distributed to heirs and charity upon your death by your chosen Trustee can be revocable or non-revocable depending on the type of Trust. There are many types of trusts. Some of the most important benefits of choosing a Trust over a Will or having a Trust and a Will, both, are:

That they allow for more creativity in making charitable gifts today to charity that will increase charitable tax deductions, today, or provide an income source to yourself, or a family member, heirs, or a charity. They also do not go through Probate the way a Will does, so heirs and charity can receive their inheritance quickly.
 
 It is typically necessary to have at least $250,000 in assets for a Trust to hold for a person to really need a Trust. To know the best Trust for your life and/or estate plans contact a Catholic attorney.
 
 

"If money touches our relationships with family members as well as the world beyond our home, it also reaches into our interior life. It is interesting that the phrase, "personal worth" can mean both the extent of our financial assets and our value as a human being" (Fr. Henri Nouwen.)

Reflection: Does having, or not having money affect your self-esteem, or your sense of value?

Church: Remember you are made in the "image and likeness of God" and your dignity arises from this Truth and then from this starting point you can learn from the Church how money can create an image you want to present to others.
