LC² Academy - Class of 2025
The LC² (Local-Church-to-Local-Church) Academy 2025 was a transformative two-week conference that brought together pastors and ministry leaders from the U.S. and Africa for a powerful experience of training, connection, and collaboration. Through our peer-to-peer learning and intentional relationship building, the LC² Academy 2025 equipped local church leaders to foster sustainable ministry partnerships that continue well beyond the event.
LC² Academy 2025 Overview
A select number of participants spent two weeks in the United States. The first week was in Princeton, Kentucky and focused on training and peer-to-peer interactions. In the second week, participants spent time with a local church with the goal of developing long-term ministry strategy and relationships.
The 2025 Academy was marked by deep conversations, shared experiences, and a renewed sense of calling among participants. It wasn’t just a program — it became a community.
