Legacy Coalition

Legacy Coalition Inspiring and equipping grandparents to be intentional spiritual influencers in their grandchildren's lives.

Grandparents are important to the church
Grandparents have a unique position of influence
Grandparents have a biblical mandate

Most evangelical Christians agree with these statements about grandparents, but so little is being done to challenge and equip this huge group — 30 million strong — of generation-changers. The gap between what is and what ought to be is enormous. The grandparent relations

hip is unrecognized and under-resourced in nearly all churches. Many churches have a Family Ministry, which focuses on parenting, and a Senior Ministry — but nothing which focuses on grandparents and their potential to disciple, especially younger grandparents. Plus, “retirement culture” pushes grandparents – even Christian ones – to pursue their own pleasure. Finally, resource providers largely overlook this audience, because of the lack of attention in churches. Here’s the summary:

• Grandparents with incredible potential to influence the next generation — and a Biblical mandate to do it — are generally overlooked, under-resourced, ignored, and mislabeled.

• Grandparents themselves often lack vision, need support and community, or don’t know of tools which can help. We believe it is time to chart a new course — to engage this incredible potential by envisioning, encouraging, and equipping grandparents —
through ministries in the local church.

June 8 on Grand Monday Nights—𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗿𝘂𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀: 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗟𝗼𝘀𝘀, 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 with Pastor Ray McKelvy, Lead Pastor at Christ for Every Nation Church.
Most grandparents carry a quiet dream of how their family story will unfold. Pastor Ray identifies with how loss, illness, estrangement, or unexpected responsibilities can shatter that vision. This session creates space to grieve what never was—without guilt—while discovering how God can reshape the dream rather than discarding it. Participants will be encouraged to see how God redeems loss, reframes calling, and invites grandparents into a deeper, more intentional role in the spiritual lives of their grandchildren. Join us!

Dr. Christopher Yuan 袁幼軒 joins us with a timely and hope-filled message. As society increasingly defines identity by feelings, sexuality, and self-expression, many grandparents are asking: How do we help our grandchildren understand who they truly are? Drawing from scripture and decades of teaching on biblical sexuality and gender, Dr. Yuan will provide practical tools to help you engage in these conversations with grace and truth.
Many attendees called his presentation at the 2026 Legacy Grandparenting Summit one of the most impactful sessions of the conference, and this powerful follow-up will further encourage and equip you to be intentional around this important topic.

From Christian Grandparenting Network

Heavenly Father,

We pray You mobilize an army of grandparents worldwide, willing to get on their knees, figuratively or literally, for this generation of children and those who come after them. Please urge Christian grandparents everywhere to pray fervently for the hearts, souls, and minds of their grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

We pray you answer these prayers with a fresh outpouring of your Holy Spirit, bringing revival to our churches and families. Please reveal yourself as you did on the first day of Pentecost, in a room in Jerusalem where 3000 people gathered to hear Peter preach. Let this revival spread to people of all ages, nations, and tongues.

In Jesus’ name, we pray.
Amen.
