Mission Committee The Pilgrim Missions Committee has a burden for missionaries that have to raise their own support to stay in the mission field and fulfill their calling. We currently support around twelve missions monthly, and if we have sufficient funds, we have a list of others that we distribute to. The costs for our missionaries is constantly on the rise, so any help we can give is greatly appreciated. Medical Supplies for Christ Provides missionaries with quality medical equipment and supplies, to assist them in preventing, or alleviating the suffering of people in underdeveloped countries, and thereby them to hear the good news of our Savior. >>more Education Board Ministry The mission of Parish Board of Education is to equip, train, and encourage our teachers so they can help our students become lifelong Christ followers. Our PLBC constitution states that our duties are "to provide, promote, maintain, and direct the educational programs of the congregation". Community Ministries
