About Us
Faith is a journey that everyone experiences differently. In college, your faith might be challenged by classes you take or experiences you encounter. Perhaps you’ve never experienced faith before, or maybe you’re aching for a deeper relationship with God through Jesus.
We're About Being Open
LCM is a place where you will find you can come with questions and you’ll find many people to journey with you toward answers. In fact, questions are welcomed and encouraged here, since that’s how faith grows most deeply.
We're Always Here
We’re an active and intimate group centered in the congregation of Mt. Carmel Lutheran Church. We have our own LCM space inside the church with wireless internet that students can access during office hours (8-4:30) for small group meetings, doing homework, or prayer and meditation.
We Worship Together
On Sundays we worship with the whole congregation (8:45am Traditional Worship and 11:00am Contemporary Worship). Tuesday night we meet in our LCM space at 7pm for a free college dinner, 8pm for a college Bible study, and at 9:30pm college worship in the sanctuary.
We Grow Together
LCM at Mt. Carmel is a gathering of young people seeking to learn about the Christian faith and go out to the world to be God’s hands and feet in service.
Our Mission
To Gather, Grow, and Go for God
