The Mission and Evangelism Committee of the Leesburg Presbyterian Church actively strives to follow Christ’s command in Matthew 28: 1- 20, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in he name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Whether it is a neighbor nearby or an unreached people group across the sea, the Mission and Evangelism Committee tries to fulfill the opportunities the Lord has presented them. Some of these include:
-
Leesburg Lighthouse – a theater company that traditionally puts on dinner theater twice a year
-
