Last weekend, our pastor, Brent, me, and 4 others from our church made the trek to Leesburg, Florida. FBC Leesburg was hosting a mission conference. The Lord has used this church to reach out to their community in an amazing way. FBC Leesburg has what they call Ministry Village. All this was started in the early 80's. They have women's, men's and children's shelters/homes, a medical clinic, a pregnancy center, and a thrift store. I think there are a few others that I cannot remember. The purpose of the conference was to show others ways to reach out to the community around their church that is effective.
It was freezing in the chapel!
