Mission Statement
The mission of L2L has been to develop youth into Christian leaders. From a group of eight boys in that first year to more than 20,000 today, our mission has remained the same. L2L is the oldest and largest leadership training program used by the churches of Christ today. It is a tool that each congregation can use to help prepare their youth and adults for service in the Kingdom of God and develop their overall leadership potential. L2L is more than just attending a youth rally or participating in a Bible Bowl. We offer a wide variety of Bible-based class materials and events for preschoolers through adults.
