The Barnabas Legacy Society

“Legacy. What is legacy? It’s planting seeds in the garden you won’t get to see.” – Lin-Manuel Miranda

SAVE THE DATE | February 2, 2025 – Luncheon.

The Barnabas Legacy Society is honoring its members at a luncheon on February 2, 2025. Please mark your calendars.

If you haven’t told us, please let Katie Vinger know by calling the office at 480-948-5560. Invitations will be going out in early January.

“The service that you perform is not only supplying the needs of the Lord’s people but is also overflowing in many expressions of thanks to God.” 2 Cor. 9:12
