Hope in Action: How Your Giving is Changing Lives Beyond Our Walls

When you give to Legacy Church, you’re doing far more than supporting Legacy Church itself—you’re helping people find their identity in Jesus and their place in His mission. And sometimes, that mission takes us straight into the heart of our community to roll up our sleeves and serve.  

This past fall, our Legacy Students had the privilege of partnering with Hope Spring Community, a local organization that works to restore and reunify families in foster care. Hope Spring Community exists to extend God's love to parents and children in Dallas-Ft. Worth as they pursue reunification after a CPS removal. Our students helped with some cleaning, organization, upkeep, and Christmas-related projects.  

Then this spring we learned that their Plano campus had the opportunity to add additional space, with one catch: it needed remodeling to better serve the people who walk through their doors every day. Because of your generosity, we were able to give $5,000 toward the project.  

Why does this matter?  

Because Jesus calls us to more than belief—He calls us to be His hands and feet. In 1 John 3:17-18, we’re reminded:  

“If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”  

That’s what this gift was—action and truth. A tangible reminder that when we give, serve, and go, we’re living out our mission: helping people find their identity in Jesus so they can find their place in the mission and impact the world with the gospel.  

This story is just one of many. But because of your giving, it can become a ripple of hope for families in our city.  

So, thank you—for every dollar you give, every prayer you pray, and every moment you say “yes” to being part of something bigger than yourself.   

Let’s keep going. There’s more to do, more to give, and more lives to reach.  

Let’s be the church that shows up—again and again.
