Land & legacy
It is an honor.
No one owes this Ministry a gift. If you are considering placing land, a home, or a portion of a sale in our care, we receive that thought with humility and deep thanks. We will work diligently — with you and with your representatives — to the best of our ability, inside IRS rules, so you may claim the full charitable deduction the law allows.
We cannot give tax advice or promise a number. We can move in good faith: timely acknowledgments, cooperation on appraisals and Form 8283, and structures that respect both your household and the Code. Your CPA and attorney remain the voices for your return. We are here to make their work easier, not to replace them.
Ground entrusted to us is used for regenerative agriculture, soil health, holistic homesteading education, equine welfare, and quiet retreat. We do not publish locations. Your realtor, CPA, and attorney are welcome in every conversation.
Ways we can walk with you
Whatever path fits your life, we will treat it as a gift of trust.
A gift of land
A deed to Sacred Light Ministries, a 501(c)(3) public charity. We are grateful beyond the paper. Charitable treatment belongs on your return, with a qualified appraisal when the law asks for one. We will do our part so nothing is delayed on this side of the table.
A bargain sale
A sale to the charity for less than fair market value. The difference may be a charitable contribution under IRC section 170. We will work with your advisors so the file is clean and complete — the most the law permits, and not a dollar of fiction.
Seller financing & contract for deed
Installment sale, seller note, lease-purchase, and contract for deed. If you need the land to begin its work while you are made whole over time, we will sit with that. Terms are written so both households can rest. Your representatives are invited to lead the drafting.
If a particular place is not the right fit, we will say so gently, so the land can find its true home. You owe us nothing for the asking. Thank you for trusting us with the question.
