Programs
Worship Ministry
Each week we gather with the LCC community for a service designed for rest, worship, and discovery. Join us on Fridays at 12:15 in Neufeld Auditorium.
Weekly Chapel
If you’re a musician or singer and would like to try out for a worship team, please contact Stephen Myers (stmyers@lcc.lt). Tryouts happen each semester during the first week of classes.
Worship Nights
Student-led worship nights are held weekly on Tuesday nights at 20:00 in Neumann Chapel. This is a wonderful space for connection with God and others and for a free expression of worship.
Faith Exploration Ministry
Round Table Discussions
Round Table Discussions are conversations hosted by staff or faculty of LCC and provide an opportunity to explore a faith-related topic with a small group of other students. They create a safe space for deeper conversation around meaningful topics during a shared meal or coffee time.
Alpha
Alpha is an 8-week course that introduces participants to the basics of the Christian faith. Each spring at LCC, students are invited to participate each week by joining for dinner, a short film, and a discussion with their group. Alpha is a program that seeks to create an open space for discussion, disagreement and various opinions to be offered. Join us in the spring!
Discipleship Ministry
Community Groups
Discipleship Assistants are student leaders in the Campus Ministries office who host community groups – opportunities to build meaningful, faith-focused community at LCC. The focus of these groups varies each semester, but each group is focused on helping students of all backgrounds grow deeper in walking with Jesus.
Retreat Program
Retreats hosted by the Campus Ministries Department are a great way for all students to rest, engage the art of intentional reflection, and to seek spiritual renewal.
Dialogue Ministry
Interfaith Program
The Interfaith Program is an opportunity for students of all faiths or of non-faith to discuss questions related to faith and the purpose of life. This program is led by interfaith ambassador volunteers and includes film nights, scriptural reasoning sessions, and photovoice gatherings!
Relational Ministry
Mentoring Program
The mentoring program offers students the opportunity to meet one-on-one with a mentor for the semester to focus on their personal and spiritual growth. Applications for the mentoring program will be released in the first or second week of every semester!
Common Grounds
Common Grounds is the campus coffee shop and is a great space for relational engagement! Whether it is informal relationship building, meeting with staff, faculty or other students, or participating in formal events, Common Grounds is a relational hub of LCC’s campus.
