“The Minister of the Congregation is directed to instruct the people, from time to time, about the duty… to make prudent provision for the well-being of their families, and of all persons to make wills, while they are in health, arranging for the disposal of their temporal goods, not neglecting, if they are able, to leave bequests for religious and charitable uses,” Book of Common Prayer 1979 p. 445
