We are glad you have taken the time to visit our web site.
We hope you will take the time to look around while you are here. We also
hope that as you look around you will challenged and encouraged by our reason
for starting this new ministry.
If you look up the word, "legacy," in the dictionary the first definition is, "money or property left to someone in a will." It is not the first definition that motivated us to choose the name. It is the second definition, "anything handed down as from an ancestor."
We
have been asking ourselves, "What will be 'handed down from' the lives
we have lived? When developments in our lives gave us the opportunity to begin
something new we immediately were captured by the thought of leaving a legacy.
We asked the question, "What do we want to 'hand down' to our family and to those we want to personally impact?" Out of this came legacyministry.com.
In many ways Legacy Ministry is something new and something old, something past, present and looking to the future. Let us introduce you to the past, present and future of legacyministry.com.
LEGACY POWERBOAT MINISTRY
Legacy Ministry provides the opportunity for us to continue to provide powerboatchaplaincy
for tunnel boat racing across the United States, Canada and Mexico. The opportunity
of powerboat chaplaincy provided initially by Motor Racing Outreach will continue
under the banner of Legacy Powerboat Ministry in association with the Motor
Racing Outreach Association. The 2003 boat racing season is the ninth season
for us as powerboat chaplains. Click on Legacy Powerboat Ministry.
LEGACY DISCIPLESHIP
MINISTRY
Legacy Ministry will also provide us the opportunity to consolidate relationships
from over thirty years of ministry. Our passion has always been to assist
people as followers of Christ in developing a practical/personal relationship
with God. We believe God wants to provide helpful answers to life's many issues.
We look forward to reconnecting with friends from the past, continuing present
relationships and looking to the future to those God will bring into our lives.

LEGACY CREATIVE MINISTRY
A third aspect of Legacy Ministry will be Legacy Creative Ministry. We look
forward to seeing what God will do in this area. Areas of interest being discussed
will be working with others to develop sport ministry through local churches,
church consulting and writing where our past experiences have given us insights
to share. Click on Legacy Creative Ministry.
One of the most famous people in Bible times, Paul the Apostle, said of King David of the Old Testament, "after he had fulfilled God's purpose in his own generation he fell asleep," ( found in the New Testament book called "Acts," chapter 13, verse 36). Paul's description of King David is amazing. What Paul is saying about David is he did what God wanted him to do while he was alive.
Who would not love for somebody to describe them in that way! David left an amazing legacy: a legacy of being described as one who did what God wanted him to do. This is what we would like to do…leave a legacy.
We believe the opportunity to leave a legacy is what brings satisfaction and fulfillment to life. We look forward to the future as we join with others through Legacy Ministry to leave a legacy. Stay in touch with us through legacyministry.com.
