Description of Organization
We exist to glorify and enjoy God by making disciples who make a difference through grace-filled worship,
community, and missions. McLean Presbyterian is part of the Capital Pres Family: one church with multiple locations. Our aim is to make disciples through three ministry areas: worship, community, and missions. While activity in each area does not equal discipleship, we are confident that these are the contexts needed for deep spiritual growth. In these contexts, we navigate the nuances of life in Christ together, and that’s how we make disciples.
