International Student Homestay
Welcome a Student into Your Home and Heart
At Legacy Christian Academy, our mission is Equipping Leaders for Christ. As part of our strategic vision, we are actively expanding our global connections and international student program—bringing unique opportunities for our campus to experience and impact the world for God's Kingdom.
We invite our school families and local Christian community to pray about opening your heart and home to an international student for the upcoming school year. Serving as a host family is a powerful ministry of hospitality and a life-changing experience for your entire household.
By opening your doors, you can:
- Bring a global culture into your family without ever leaving home.
- Create lifelong international friendships that extend far beyond the school year.
- Broaden your family’s global understanding through a Christ-centered lens.
- Introduce an international student to American culture, family life, and traditions in a warm, loving home.
- Learn about the culture, history, and traditions of your student’s home country.
- Join a supportive community of fellow LCA host families.
