Can a church be the executor of my will?
With the will, you can designate the church to be the executor of the will. That would allow them to handle all arrangements. In the will itself, you can also designate how you wish to handle your final resting place and whether you wish to be buried, cremated, or choose some other option. You may also, if you wish, leave your assets to the church or to multiple beneficiaries; it just needs to be clearly outlined in the will.
Once it's created, you would also need it to be witnessed by uninterested parties and notarized. Then, you would want to have it stored in a safe place for the unfortunate event of your passing.

Hi there! My name is Liz and I’ve been an attorney for more than a decade, and I am here to assist with your legal concerns. So I can best help, has the church agreed to handle your arrangements?
Yes, the church has.
