Life Pacific University proudly celebrated its 2025 Commencement, honoring the achievements of almost 150 graduates across undergraduate and graduate programs. The university community gathered over several days of celebration, reflection, and inspiration to mark this significant milestone in the lives of its students. The festivities began with the Master’s Hooding Ceremony, where graduate students were formally recognized for their academic accomplishments and leadership. This special moment allowed faculty, family, and friends to honor students who completed rigorous programs in areas such as leadership, ministry, and psychology. We also celebrated the graduation of the inaugural class of the Master’s in Business Administration.
Following the hooding, the university held a Baccalaureate Service, blending worship, student testimonies, and words of encouragement from faculty and staff. This spiritual gathering reflected the heart of Life Pacific’s heart — to equip students for service in God’s kingdom through Christ-centered education.
The celebrations culminated in the 2025 Commencement Ceremony, held on campus in a joyful and reverent atmosphere. President Angie Richey conferred degrees and recognized distinguished guests, while attendees cheered on graduates as they crossed the stage, filled with hope and purpose for the next chapter of their journey. This year’s commencement featured the awarding of two Honorary Doctorates to extraordinary leaders:
Rev. Randy Remington, President of The Foursquare Church, was honored for his unwavering leadership and commitment to the global church movement.
Rev. Christine Caine, internationally renowned Christian speaker, author, and activist, was not only an honorary degree recipient but also served as the 2025 Commencement Speaker. Her stirring message challenged graduates to live boldly, serve faithfully, and make a transformative impact in the world. With passion and conviction, she called the Class of 2025 to embrace their calling with courage and compassion.
President Richey remarked, “That is a wrap on the 2024-25 school year! Congratulations to the class of 2025 – we are so proud of you. I am in awe of our students for each of their hard work. Thank you to Patria Church and Trustee Adam Mesa for making this amazing celebration possible, as well as our faculty, staff, and Honorary Doctorate recipients Rev. Randy Remington and Rev. Christine Caine for all you each added to the weekend. God is good!”
As tassels turned and caps flew, Life Pacific University sent forth a new wave of graduates prepared to lead in ministry, business, education, and beyond. With deep gratitude, the university community celebrates the Class of 2025 — a class marked by resilience, character, and a commitment to God’s mission in the world.
Congratulations, graduates!
