A message from our Missions Pastor


Hey Legacy Family,


Thank you so much for your faithful giving to our general fund and your prayers. It has helped us impact our community and other parts of the world. We had a great September as we invested in Uganda and had an opportunity to serve the international college students of UTD.

 

I want to share that with your giving, we also had the opportunity to partner with Frisco Bible Church, supporting our friend Chad Bailey and his family as they launch a church in Celina with a group of 20 families. Would you pray with me for the Lord to do a great work with the Mills Community Church? Would you pray they shine the Gospel in their community so all those who don’t know Christ or are far removed from Christ will turn to Jesus within the assistance of this family of believers?  

 

As you know we are already in October which means we have our Trunk or Treat outreach for families. Please get the message out to your friends and neighbors that we have a great event planned for October 30. I know some of you are looking for ways to participate so check out the Trunk or Treat Section below to find more details on ways to serve at this event.

 

If you missed out last fall and spring on our Personal Evangelism Class, you’re in luck because classes start back up again this month. Please sign up using the Register Now button in the Personal Evangelism Class Section below.

 

Just a quick sneak peek into November! Legacy Church will be hosting another Culture Wise event on November 13 called “Tech-Wise” a Conversation on Technology and Family. Be on the lookout for more information.

 

Also, in the Service Opportunities Section is the link to the updated Legacy Church Serve Opportunities guide, which gives options on how to serve within our community and with our partners. As you read through the opportunities, if you have any questions, please do reach out to us in Missions.  

 

I am so grateful for you all

 

Serving with you,

Patrick Iga

This year we have set a goal for 400 total boxes. The 2022 OCC Campaign will run from Sunday, October 23 – Tuesday, November 15. All boxes need to be returned to the church no later than Tuesday, November 15.

Trunk or Treat

Volunteer and Donation Information

Legacy Church is transforming our parking lot for everyone’s favorite costumed holiday.


Our eighth annual Trunk or Treat is your opportunity to enjoy candy, games, and giveaways among friends and family in a safe and fun environment for kids of all ages. Dress up and join us as we bring out the bounce houses, dish out some door prizes, and pack the parking lot with trunks full of treats.


We can’t wait to see you there!

Helping Hands Class

As people reach out for help, the team meets with the requestor on a Wednesday evening at Legacy Church to assess the need and submit team findings to our finance team. When a meeting is scheduled, the team is queried to see who is available. Three team members are needed for an assessment, rotating through team members allows the time investment required by team members to be low volume.


If you are interested to see what it is all about, please register for this training session on Sunday, November 6, at 8:45 am in Adult classroom 124.
