Mission Beyond
The Mission Beyond Committee meets monthly with the goal of expanding the reach of our church. We provide our congregation with opportunities to serve and/or support local and global missions and missionaries. We do this by allocating PLCPC mission funds, informing members and friends about missional opportunities locally and globally, promoting mission trips and disaster relief efforts, and providing opportunities for members to serve God in the local community and beyond.
If you are interested in serving and getting involved, there are many ways to do so. Join us for our meeting, at 7 pm on the second Tuesday of most months. Contact Bob Lemke for more information about how to get involved.
