LEGACY 2026

For The
Generations, For
Generations.

Our Heart For Legacy

We recognise the undeniable hand of God over this house. He has been building something far greater and more beautiful than we could have imagined. Every life transformed and every sacrifice sown has become part of a legacy that stands as a testimony of His
faithfulness. Now in 2026, The Lord is calling us: Deeper Again.
This is not just a theme, it is the invitation of heaven over our house.
Not just wider. Not just larger.  But deeper.

In a world drawn to what is visible, God is forming something deep within us, something that can only be cultivated in His presence. As we go deeper, God will entrust us with greater influence, greater reach, and a greater harvest of lives transformed. Legacy is not measured by what we build, but by what remains. Therefore our attention is firmly on stewarding what God has entrusted to us now, in a way that will outlast us.

As we look ahead, we see a church expanding in mission, equipping the saints, and establishing a lasting legacy in Melbourne and beyond. Reaching the vulnerable, strengthening kingdom unity, and stewarding this house. This is the legacy that will outlive us.

We believe this is a defining moment for our church. A moment for each of us to take our place as we respond with faith, prayer,
and generosity. We are not waiting for miracle days, we are living in them.
The question now comes to us; will we participate in what God is doing or simply spectate?
And as we go Deeper Again, the legacy we build now will carry the presence and power of God for generations to come.

Jimmy and Emma L’Almont

“They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities.”

ISAIAH 61:3-4

- Now in 2026

Three
streams,
one vision.

We are believing to raise funds to further expand and partner with what God has begun. We have a vision to expand the ministry as our congregation grows and continue to reach people in Ivanhoe, in Melbourne and beyond with the gospel. We are wanting to spread this impact across 3 streams:

01

Further extending our partnerships with local Melbourne organisations including Open House to support those in need and the most vulnerable in our local community.

02

Funding our community playgroup to reach even more people in the community – utilising this space to serve families of the local community.

03

Partnering with and funding Destiny Rescue to see precious children rescued from abuse, trafficking and slavery.

04

Partnering with Compassion International to plant churches and fund specific humanitarian aid projects that directly impact the quality of life for some of the poorest and disadvantaged.

01

Supporting a new church plant in Melbourne to launch and expand.

02

Continuing and increase city-wide united prayer events amongst pastors and leaders in Melbourne.

03

Continuing to host and facilitate Equip Nights to equip the body of Christ.

04

Building discipleship infrastructure behind the scenes (courses, ministry training, support) in anticipation for a harvest of salvations.

01

We are believing to pay $250K off the principal of the Ivanhoe loan with eh long term goal of owing this land and building outright.

02

Improving the current facilities through further soundproofing throughout the building, upgrading cafe facilities and miscellaneous smaller building completion projects.

03

Exterior building refresh, paint and restoration.

04

Attend to various roof repair and waterproofing requirements.

05

Strengthening our children’s ministry by expanding the kids facilities to include an outdoor, fenced playground and activity area.

Since planting in 2020 we have had a dream in our hearts for a permanent home for our church in Melbourne. We wanted to put a stake in the ground and declare that we are here to stay.

This dream led us to pray and seek God’s wisdom on stewarding our finances, so we’d be ready when the opportunity came. For four years, we faithfully budgeted with a surplus, aligning our actions with our prayers – and now, God has done it.

IN 2024, GOD DID IT. HE OPENED THE DOOR FOR US TO MOVE INTO IVANHOE, AND WE WERE READY.

Thankful, but stirred.

WE ARE THANKFUL—

For all God has done in such a short time—
For the lives that have found community, freedom and healing in Jesus.
For the Spirit of God moving in our kids and young people as they discover their identity in Christ.

BUT WE ARE STIRRED—

Because it is not yet in Melbourne as it is in Heaven.
Because there are still many who have not encountered Jesus.
Because we are not called to comfort, to shrink back or to rest on past miracles or moves of God.

God has been building something far greater and far more beautiful than we could have imagined. Every life transformed, every prayer answered, every sacrifice sown has become part of a legacy that now stands as a testimony of His faithfulness and the inevitability of His Kingdom coming.

In 2025, through the generosity of saints Church and many external donors we raised $489,554 in our Legacy Offering.

This, combined with previous legacy campaigns and church savings of $978K means, including the deposit already paid, we’ve covered 46.5% of the purchase price (ex GST) of our building, which brings the loan required to $1.25M.

We ask that you would prayerfully consider partnering with us by sowing a financial seed into
Reclaiming, Restoring and Reviving Melbourne.
