Connect Groups
FBC Leesburg's Connect Groups provide a great opportunity to engage with others in a growing biblical community. You do not need to be a church member to join a Connect Group. If you are not currently involved in one of our Connect Groups, we encourage you to find one and get plugged into a community of believers today.
