Welcome
Legacy 242 is a place where people can meet Jesus, engage in authentic community, and everyone is welcome. We believe in creating a space where people can have genuine encounters with God, pursue discipleship to Jesus together, discover their gifts and use them for God's glory and the good of our neighbors. Connect with a microchurch for discipleship or join us for a Sunday gathering for corporate worship.
Microchurches

Microchurches are the front lines and main focus of our ministry because they most naturally reflect Jesus' disciple-making ministry while he was on earth. Jesus and his 12 disciples shared their lives together while on mission to proclaim the Kingdom, minister to people and make disciples of all people. Our desire is to multiply simple microchurches that embody this legacy of love that God is building.

What To Expect At a Sunday Gathering
A typical Sunday gathering will last about 2 hours. Each gathering is made up of four main elements: praise, prayer, preaching and participation in Communion (aka the Lord's Supper or the Eucharist).
- Praise: We sing a mix of songs designed to declare God's glory and express our devotion to Him.
- Prayer: While there is pastoral prayer from the front and a prayer team is available after each gathering, we also prioritize time during the gathering to listen to the Spirit, bless others with spiritual gifts and testimonies and pray. We welcome everyone to participate during this time.
- Preaching: One of our elder/pastors or someone in training will preach the gospel as they teach the Scriptures. Our main form of teaching is Christ-centered expositional preaching, meaning that we teach through books of the Bible, one passage at a time, seeking to unpack its originally intended meaning, how it points us to Jesus, our Savior King, and how to apply its truth to our lives.
- Participation: After the teaching we slow down to reflect and then gather around the Lord's table for confession and conversation as we receive Communion together.
- The whole family is always welcome! We provide sermon note takers for kids and teens. As we're able, Legacy kids provides engaging age-appropriate Bible teaching during the sermon. Plan to stick around after the service to hang out, strengthen relationships, and meet new people!
