Dear Friends,
As we embark on a new academic year, we are thrilled to welcome you back to Lyke House AUC and GSU! This year, we will continue our focus on Missionary Discipleship—a journey of growth, faith, and service. We believe that every student has the potential to be a missionary disciple, dedicated to deepening their faith and sharing Christ’s love within our AUC and GSU campuses.
After much contemplation and reflection on our mission here at Lyke House, we are excited to announce our motto for the 2025-2026 academic year: “Transforming collegians into missionary disciples, recognizing each student’s dedication to deepening their faith and sharing Christ’s love across the AUC and GSU campuses.”
We invite you to join us in this transformative journey! Together, let’s deepen our faith, foster community, and become active agents of evangelization — messengers of Jesus’ love in our world.
Welcome back, and let’s make this year a remarkable one!
In Christ,
Fr. Mark and The Lyke House Team
