Micro-grants to people in the church that fund innovation and ideas to show the love of Jesus to our neighborhood and community.
The Love Project was created to empower the people of Legacy Church to show the Love of Jesus to those around us.
Do you have an idea to serve others or meet a need in your community or neighborhood? We want to help you do it (and even provide up to $1,000)!
Legacy has funds set aside for The Love Project and uses them to complete a variety of projects initiated by people in the church. Instead of creating a bunch of extra ministries within the church, this fund allows the people of Legacy to truly BE the hands and feet of Jesus doing projects outside the church. These funds help us enter into the messiness of life, to get out on the front lines in our own backyards with strangers, or even better, people that we already know!
With any project, our goal is to love people like our savior and share our savior's love with them, not be a savior for them. Through the Love Project, we hope to truly live out the greatest commandment...
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’There is no commandment greater than these.”
Mark 12:30-31
The Love Project - Guidelines
1. Anyone can apply!
Anyone who considers Legacy their home can apply for a grant of up to $1,000.
2. Something Local
Projects need to assist something or someone local (other than the person applying or their own family).
3. Do it together.
Find at least 2 or more people to do a project with.
4. Multiply the money.
We hope you can get creative & multiply the gift.
(Example: Instead of using a $1,000 grant to help pay someone’s medical bills, the $1,000 could be used to put together a fundraiser to raise $5,000.) This is not mandatory but highly encouraged!
