A Message from the President

Grace and Peace to you my Father’s children. On behalf of the Light of the World Covenant Fellowship International Christian College/University, staff and faculty we welcome you to what may be the challenge of a lifetime. Preparing for your calling in the ministry through education may be one of the most meaningful goals of your Christian journey.

Our college/university staff and faculty are here to assist you through your educational journey. The college/university was established in 2024, by the church, for the church people and because of Christ–the head of the Christian Church. Your enrollment as a student proves that you are serious about your preparation for Christian ministry and your calling. We are committed in helping you to gain what you seek, my beloved. That commitment is reflected in offering the students affordable Christian education by experienced faculty.

Light is often used as a symbol for God, faith, and holiness in the Bible. Christians are encouraged to walk in the light and to be the light for others in this world. The word of God states “Your word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path” (Psalm 119:105). Our curriculum is based on the word of God. It is our hope and prayer that the Lord will continue to give you His Light as you walk in His will for your life and calling to serve the body of Christ.

Therefore, beloved “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” and “…go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature” (Matthew 5:16, Mark 16:15a).
