"My life is worth nothing unless I use it for doing the work
assigned me by the Lord Jesus -- the work of telling others the Good
News about God's wonderful kindness and love." Acts 20:24
God is at work in the world and He wants you to join Him. As
followers of Christ, we are to continue what he started. Telling others
how they can have eternal life is the greatest thing you can do for
them. LCC is active in providing many opportunities locally
and world-wide to participate in, sharing Christ's love with others.
As we leave our church parking lot, we are reminded: "You are now entering the Mission Field"
