The Beginning of a New Legacy
2022 was a constant reminder of God’s faithfulness. It was a story of changed lives, increased obedience, and discovering God’s calling for each of our us.
It was also the start of something new. From thousands taking the next step in their spiritual journey to breaking ground on the Legacy Park Project, God is moving in and through our church family today to pave the way for Gospel impact for decades to come.
As we look toward 2023, let’s take a moment to reflect on all that we have to be thankful for over the past 12 months.
