Letter from the President

Dear Friends,

Thank you for taking a moment to learn more about Great Lakes Christian College. Whether you are a prospective student, a parent, an alum, or a supporter of Christian higher education; I am grateful for your interest in the mission God has entrusted to us.

We believe that education is more than information, it is formation. This is a place where students deepen their faith, sharpen their minds, and develop the character needed to lead and serve in a world that desperately needs the hope of Christ. Our faculty and staff are committed to walking alongside students as mentors, encouragers, and partners in discovering God’s calling on their lives.

What makes our university special is not simply our academic programs or our beautiful campus, but our community. Here, students are known by name. They are prayed for, challenged, supported, and loved. They worship together, study together, serve together, and grow together. In every classroom, residence hall, chapel gathering, and outreach ministry, you will find people seeking to follow Jesus with sincerity and purpose.

As an alumnus of Great Lakes Christian College, I can say with confidence that this community changes lives. It shaped me as a student, and it continues to shape me today. Now, as President, I count it a privilege to help lead the next generation of servant leaders who will carry the gospel into churches, workplaces, neighborhoods, and nations.

If you are considering Great Lakes Christian College, I want to encourage you: come and see what God is doing here. I believe you will discover a place where your faith deepens, your gifts are refined, and your future opens in ways you never imagined.

May God bless you as you seek His direction for your life.

In His Service,

Dr. Frank Weller
President, Great Lakes Christian College
