Meet Our Elders

Legacy is a pastor-led congregation with a team of elected elders who serve the church in accordance with the Biblical guidelines provided in I Timothy 3:1-7, I Timothy 5:17-22, and Titus 1:5-9. Our elder team supports the pastor in clarifying the church's mission and priorities, overseeing the administrative and teaching functions of the church, and otherwise advising and assisting with leadership of the body. For details on Legacy's elder team, see the Church Constitution and By-Laws, available at the church office.
