God has been doing something amazing in the lives of three people at our McLean Bible Church campuses.

Katie, a single grade school teacher in PW County, attends three MBC services each week. Saturday night she attends the Tysons Campus. She enjoys the worship and teaching so much that she attends again Sunday morning via the Internet Campus from her home in Manassas. On Sunday nights, she also attends Frontline via the Internet Campus, where she is one of the most engaged members of the online community.

Three weeks ago, Katie was in a head-on collision with a drunk driver. Katherine, her best friend and a non-believer, came to visit her shortly after the accident. Seeing Katie laying there in the hospital, she made a promise to God. She told Him that if He got her friend through the accident, she would begin going to church. By God’s grace, Katie was out of bed the following day and scheduled to go home with only minor injuries. That very day, Katherine finally did something Katie had been trying to get her to do for months?she logged onto the Internet Campus. That morning, after Lon presented the Gospel, Katherine prayed to accept Christ. But the Lord had even bigger plans in mind, as the following week Katherine brought her younger brother to the Tysons Campus, where he too accepted Christ as his Lord and Savior.

Now, Katherine and her brother are regular attendees of the Tysons and Internet Campuses, with plans to attend the upcoming Christianity 101. Katie and Katherine express excitement on a weekly basis for the upcoming Prince William Campus, where they both hope to get plugged in as volunteers.

I believe this is an amazing example of how God is using our church to impact secular Washington for Christ and it is so cool to see so many different campuses and ministries come together in impacting the lives of Katie and her friends.
