Our NEW, biennial gathering of EVERYONE who is a part of LMC: families, congregations, youth groups, and leaders! During Assembly, we will take the opportunity to pause from our normal rhythms, gathering to celebrate God’s work among us, cast vision for the future, and mobilize for mission.
More information about Assembly is being added to this webpage; check back for updates. Register here.
Running concurrently with Assembly, YouthCon will be a special gathering time for all youth across LMC!
We encourage all youth and youth groups to attend! This is an opportunity for youth to make new connections and friends, grow in their walk with Jesus, and be empowered to be the light in their schools and neighborhoods.
YouthCon will join Assembly for the opening and closing worship and plenary sessions, but will have their own tailored schedule the rest of the event.
**Please Note: This is the general schedule for Assembly; YouthCon’s schedule will be different, though with similar offerings. YouthCon schedule coming soon.**

Millersville University is a public university within Pennsylvania’s state system (PASSHE). It was originally established in 1855 as the Lancaster County Normal School (later Millersville State Normal School), as the first state normal school in Pennsylvania. A “normal school” specializes in training teachers; it is mostly an antiquated term in the US, but normal schools or their equivalent still exist around the world.
Today, Millersville University is still well-known for their education degrees, ranking #14 in the country for Best Bachelor’s in Special Education and #50 in the country for Best Bachelor’s in Education by Best Accredited Colleges in 2023.
For those staying overnight, university lodging options are private suites that include one or two bedrooms (with 2 twin-size beds each) and a private bedroom. When you register, the Assembly Planning team will arrange the lodging situation that works best with your family size. Linens will be provided.
