Lifetime Gift
A Gift That Lasts a Lifetime: Planning Today for Peace of Mind Tomorrow
We plan for so many milestones in life—weddings, college, vacations, and retirement. But one of the most meaningful plans we can make is often the one we avoid discussing.
Barnabas Center, in partnership with Thrivent, is honored to host a special educational event designed to help individuals and families navigate one of life’s most important conversations—planning ahead.
Introducing: A Lifetime Gift
Led by Certified Financial Planner Shelly Halverson, this informative session offers guidance, tools, and encouragement for those ready to take thoughtful steps toward estate and legacy planning.
The workshop is built around a simple but powerful idea: preparing for the future is not just practical—it’s one of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones.
What You’ll Gain
During this educational presentation, participants will learn:
-
How planning ahead can bring peace of mind
-
The value of sharing critical information with family
-
Practical conversation starters for discussing final wishes
-
Helpful checklists and instructions to guide next steps
These tools are designed to make what can feel like a difficult topic more approachable, organized, and empowering.

Why This Conversation Matters
At Barnabas Center, we believe empowerment includes preparing individuals and families not only for today’s needs—but for tomorrow’s realities.
Estate and legacy planning ensures that:
-
Loved ones are protected
-
Wishes are honored
-
Financial and medical decisions are clear
-
Stress and uncertainty are reduced during emotional times
It transforms uncertainty into clarity—and planning into an act of love.
