Leadership

Steve is the founding Pastor of Legacy 242. While his central priority is Jesus, his devotion also goes to his wife, Kim, and their four daughters: Emma, Tori, Sophie and Georgia.

After fifteen years of depression, drug abuse and destructive living, God saved Steve and set him on a new path in life. With a restored family, renewed hope, and clear vision, Steve began to pursue God's purpose for him. That led to pastoral ministry and church planting. Steve's experience in the Marine Corps and Restaurant Management serve him on this new mission. Steve received a certificate of Biblical and Theological Studies from Liberty University and is currently studying towards a Masters in Theology with a concentration in Christ-Centered Preaching at Grimke Seminary.

Alongside his role with Legacy 242, Steve serves as a Pastoral Care Pastor for the Acts 29 Northeast region and a Regional Architect for the CREO Collective. When he isn't hanging out with his wife or daughters, Steve enjoys football, action-adventure films, a good book, slow smoked BBQ, making new friends and a roaring backyard bonfire.

As a local pastor Brandon focuses on his neighborhood in Belmawr and the micro-church he leads with his wife Katie. In addition, he often leads worship for network and Sunday gatherings. Brandon also co-leads in the building of deep biblical community through The Change Project.  

Brandon's calling into music and biblical counseling was generated by God after a long period of destruction, trauma, loss, depression, and addiction. God pulled him out of the pit, miraculously restoring his life, marriage, and family. He completely walked away from his old life and career in management to follow God's calling into counseling. Brandon has received his Masters in Biblical Counseling and his Specialized Certificate for Professional Counseling from Cairn University. He is currently working towards his License in Professional Counseling in NJ and PA, while counseling at Oasis Counseling Center, and assisting in training the graduate students in the counseling masters at Cairn University.  

God has graciously gifted Brandon and his wife, Katie, with two daughters, Hadleigh and Hannah. Brandon loves playing cards or Dominion with family and friends, playing/writing/recording music, riding his motorcycle, and hot-air ballooning.  

Don was the executive pastor and co-founder of Legacy 242 and although he no longer serves in the day to day operations he is still an extended part of the Legacy 242 family. Don responded to God's call to ministry by studying at Alliance Theological Seminary and moving into pastoral ministry. He's served as a solo pastor and as an executive pastor for over a dozen years. Don and Deb have been married for thirty-eight years and together they have two adult children and two grandchildren. Don appreciates the beauty of God's creation, sticky buns and a day at the range.

As a NJ native, Kim grew up in Gloucester City and attended Catholic school from K-12. While there was an awareness of who Jesus is, she never had a personal saving relationship with him until after marrying Steve. As Kim puts it, Jesus rescued her from a "life of insecurity, fear and loneliness." She now holds tight to the promise of God that "he who began a good work in her will bring it to completion" (Phil. 1:6).

Kim and Steve homeschool their four beautiful daughters Emma, Tori, Sophie and Georgia with a conviction that they are responsible to train their children up as gifts of God. Kim enjoys sharing her passion for singing, dancing, laughing, creativity and imagination with her children each day and with all who interact with her.
