Lancaster Bible College | Capital Seminary & Graduate School is planning several opportunities for prospective students to learn more about the college.

Washington, D.C. | August 31

LBC | Capital – Washington, D.C., will host an upcoming virtual open house on Aug. 31 so potential students can learn more about the associates, bachelors and masters degrees available at the college’s location in Greenbelt, Md.

“As educators, we recognize the value of transformational instruction sourced in the gospel of Jesus Christ, and ideally, we expect that our teaching will have a multi-generational impact,” said LBC | Capital’s Washington, D.C., Global Site Director David Gaines. “Although we have the privilege of directly communicating to our students, we believe that the life-changing instruction we share will continue beyond the classroom into the immediate culture in which they live. Essentially, we are educating all our students so that they think and live out the principles of a Christ-centered, biblical worldview as they serve Him in the Church and society.”
