Who We Are
REAL LIFE.....REAL PEOPLE....REAL GOD!
PURPOSE
Every church needs to have a purpose statement that answers the question, “why do we exist?” At Legacy Church, we filter every idea, program, event and all we do through our purpose statement. If the plan doesn’t help us meet our purpose, we don’t do it.
Our purpose at Legacy Church is summarized in one single statement:
“To reach people with the life giving message of the Gospel and to help them love Jesus, serve others and tell the world about Christ.”
Our statement of purpose is based on the teachings of Jesus:
Jesus said, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.’ This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others as well as you love yourself.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law and the Prophets hangs from them.” (Matthew 22:37-40 Message)
And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. (Mark 16:15 NLT)
CORE VALUES
All members of Legacy Church are expected to operate with a set of core values that we believe help us accomplish our purpose:
People : People are more important than the project.
Relationships : People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.
Spiritual Disciplines : Personal devotion to Christ produces a powerful spiritual life.
Unconditional Love : You don’t have to be perfect, just willing to let Him work on and in you.
Mentorship : There is no success without a successor.
Generosity : We live to give and we love to give.
Personal Excellence : Excellence inspires others and glorifies God.
Servant Leadership : Model the message.
Teamwork : We are better together.
Reaching Out : Get outside the walls!.
What To Expect:
Every church is a little different, so it’s natural for a first time visitor to be cautious. The list below provides some basic information to give you an idea of what you can expect when you visit Legacy Church.
