THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the voting process. We are humbled by the unwavering trust that was demonstrated in the Leadership Team of Legacy Christian Church! The vote on the proposed amendment witnessed an exceptional level of engagement from our congregation, with over 800 votes cast—the highest in Legacy’s voting history. 746 out of 801 voters showed support for the amendment, reflecting a 93% approval rate for updating the by-laws. Thus, as of April 1, 2024, the “By-Laws of Legacy Christian Church” have been amended to reflect the proposed change.
In the coming months, the Administrative Board of Elders will collaborate with teams of professionals to comprehensively update the by-laws. Once this project is final, we are committed to promptly posting the revised by-laws on this webpage. Your continued support and prayers are invaluable as we strive to serve our congregation with integrity and transparency.
All ladies are invited to come enjoy a night of worship and building friendships. Each one of us has been entrusted to live our lives well, and this night together will help us consider how best to do that!
Bring your friends and neighbors!
Registration closes June 26. Contact Monica Butler ([email protected]) if you have any questions!

Welcome to “Back Snacks” where compassion meets hunger in the heart of the Lee’s Summit middle school community. This ministry is dedicated to ensuring that no child goes without enough food over the weekend. Recognizing the challenges some middle school students face, we extend a helping hand by providing snacks to those in need.
We believe that every child deserves the chance to focus on their studies, fun, and family, enjoying childhood without the burden of hunger. Through the kindness of our volunteers and generous supporters, we assemble weekend snack packs filled with treats, ensuring that these students return to school on Monday recharged, ready to learn, and equipped with the energy they need to thrive.
Join us in fostering a community of care and support, as we strive to create a brighter future for every child, one bag of snacks at a time. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of these young individuals, empowering them to reach their full potential and build meaningful connection in their families’ hearts and minds with the Lord’s Church.
Men’s Breakfast will empower you to grow in Christlikeness within the church amongst men. Whether you are new to Legacy or have been coming for a long time, join in a Biblical community seeking to grow in their faith, create new friendships, and have fun! We will meet downstairs at the Overland Park Campus from 8:00-9:30 AM for breakfast and a devotional time, and we are looking forward to regular gatherings and events!
Breakfast will be $5 per person and you can pay online here when you sign up!
