Philosophical
Statement

Our intention is to provide learners with a safe
environment to encourage self-development and
personal growth.

Our passion is for balanced and Biblically-
grounded leaders to be deployed to all levels of
the community and vocations. We believe these
leaders should bring an expression of integrity and
ethics guided by the Christian faith wherever
they serve.

We desire to prepare minds to learn, seek, re-
search, reason and achieve, unlocking their
potential in order to reach their goals.

     Student
     Feedback
     Student feedback recently has been very
     encouraging:

     “Study was intimidating for me based on my High
     school experience. I now feel confident I could
     study toward anything I wanted to”

     “Building a team up is one of the top things I
     have enjoyed about my time doing the internship.
     Working with people, encouraging them, identify-
     ing their individual gifts and passions and finding a
     place for them to be used and developed within the
     framework of our youth ministry has been awe-
     some. At the beginning if the internship it was just
     myself and one other leading the youth ministry.
     Now we have a team of about six adults and a great
     team of young people rising and growing in their
     faith and leadership ability.”

     “These kinds of testimonials remind us why we
     do what we do. ALC is a unique opportunity for
     Disciples of all ages and academic abilities to be in-
     volved in something for themselves and ultimately
     for the growing of the Kingdom. It is an opportunity
     to give enthusiasm and deep desire rich soil to grow
     in and foundation to build on.”

you never knew you had. You will not only have hands on experience in a
safe and supportive environment, but you will be guided and mentored
every step of the way as you develop as a leader. The skills you will
learn while carrying out your internship will be valuable not only while
you are studying, but will be the building blocks for your future.
