As Proverbs 16:3 reminds us, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.”

For almost seven decades, God has faithfully shaped this ministry through the people He has called to be part of it. Generations of students, families, teachers, and supporters have witnessed His grace at work—transforming lives through Christ-centered education that educates the mind, encourages the spirit, and equips disciples to serve in His kingdom.

God continues to pour out His blessings on Lakeside Lutheran High School—by His design. He is shaping our ministry, guiding our plans, and growing our community—spiritually, academically, and numerically. As enrollment grows and programs expand, our current facilities can no longer keep pace with the ministry God has entrusted to us. With classrooms at near capacity—serving 560 students in a building designed for 575—space is limited for collaboration, student connection, and innovative learning. Many classrooms are outdated and undersized, gathering areas are constrained, and improvements to accessibility and campus flow are urgently needed.

This campaign seeks to:

Expand and renovate academic spaces to provide modern, flexible classrooms and learning environments that inspire students, support innovative instruction, and maximize the use of every square foot.
Develop new and improved co-curricular spaces for athletics, arts, and extracurricular programs, giving students room to explore their God-given talents, collaborate, and grow outside the classroom.
Upgrade and optimize campus facilities to address urgent space needs, improve accessibility, enhance campus flow, and ensure functional, safe, and welcoming environments for students, staff, and the broader Lakeside community.

This season calls for boldness—bold like Jacob, who wrestled with God and sought His blessing with persistence and trust. We are inviting partners who desire to pursue great achievements with the resources God has entrusted to them and who believe deeply in the lasting impact of Christian education. We warmly invite you to join others who are prayerfully walking alongside LLHS—reflecting on the blessings the Lord has showered upon you and your family, and considering how you might support this important work with a joyful and generous gift. Together, as a community united in faith and purpose, we can help shape a bright and lasting future for our students and for Christ’s mission at LLHS.

We may not know exactly how God will provide, but we trust that He is already at work preparing the way. With His guidance, lead gifts—like a commitment to match donations at 1.25 to 1 up to $4,600,000—are already paving the path toward our $9.2 million goal to complete the site plan and bring this vision to life for generations to come. These gifts are more than financial contributions—they are bold statements of faith, setting an example and inspiring others to join in this movement of generosity.

Together, through prayerful commitment and faithful giving, we will transform this vision into reality and honor the One who makes all things possible (Proverbs 16:3).

By His Design: Building for His Purpose

Together, we honor 68 years of God’s blessings by investing in the next chapter of His design—preparing more students to learn boldly, live faithfully, and lead courageously in His name.
