Legacy Team Vision

Connecting Leaders to Kingdom Purpose

Legacy Team Purpose

The Legacy Team is an outlet for those who are called and equipped to finance the Kingdom of God and to leave a legacy that has eternal impact and return on investment. The Legacy Team give influence, resources and time as a local church ministry expression to advance the cause of Christ.

Romans 12:6-8 says:

“In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.”
