Ad Team

The Administrative Team is twelve men and women elected by Legacy members to serve up to three years doing the business of the church between annual church conferences. The Ad Team, along with the Lead Pastor, is in charge of the direction of Legacy Church.

The Ad Team meets quarterly in meetings which are open to the public.

The Ad Team is made up of three smaller committees:

Staff/Pastor Relations

The Staff/Pastor Relations Committee (SPRC) is in charge of keeping the church staffed. The SPRC also updates the employee handbook, is in charge of employee evaluations, and is involved in a lot of other Human Resource duties.

Trustees

The Trustees are responsible for the property of the church which includes the church, the parsonages, and the church’s land.

Finance

The Finance Committee is in charge of managing the budget, performing the annual audit of the church books, and directing the stewardship drive.
