In some ways it is difficult to believe that we have been together as a church for only one year. It seems we have always been together. And what a year it has been. We have seen lots of change and it has been truly awesome to see how God has used this church to intervene in so many lives and bring new life and vitality.
2008 was a challenging year in many ways. The first months of a new relationship are always both exciting and challenging. We have been getting to know each other, to adjust to each other and to love each other. I must say that this church is made up of some of the greatest people I have ever met. God has brought us together to do some great things in the Kingdom and to impact our community in some powerful ways. There is some much energy, enthusiasm, giftedness, love and abilities at work through this Body of Christ that I can hardly wait to see all of the things God is going to do through the ministries of Legacy Christian Church.
As we move forward into 2009, we will face some great challenges as both individuals and as a church family. The economy will challenge us to be wise stewards of all God has given us and challenge us to be creative in meeting the needs of those around us. We will be challenged to be wise in our actions and to encourage those we know with a positive, Godly outlook. We will be challenged to depend on and look to God for guidance, strength, and living joyfully.
Happy Anniversary Church!!
