Writing a Legacy Letter

  • Wisdom House Retreat & Conference Center 229 East Litchfield Road Litchfield, CT, 06759 United States (map)

Presented by Jay Sherwin via ZOOM

This workshop is designed to introduce the concept of legacy letters. 

A legacy letter (also called an “ethical will”) is a written document that allows you to share your life lessons, express your values and transmit your blessings to future generations. A legacy letter is not a formal legal document or a full-length memoir; it’s a brief personal statement, typically just a few pages. Writing one is a rewarding experience that creates an enduring gift for your family, friends and loved ones.

Cost | $20 (Zoom Access information will be emailed to you prior to the workshop.)
