Life Pacific University to Host 2026 Cumbre de Liderazgo Featuring Dr. Pablo Deiros

July 15

Life Pacific University will welcome pastors, ministry leaders, educators, and other leaders of influence to the 2026 Cumbre de Liderazgo on Saturday, July 25, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the LPU campus in San Dimas. Hosted by LPU’s Hispanic Programs, the free event is designed for leaders committed to continued biblical formation and growth.

Register for the 2026 Cumbre de Liderazgo

Building on the momentum of last year’s record-breaking gathering, the Cumbre will once again bring leaders together for a meaningful day of teaching, ministry, connection, and professional development. Attendees will have the opportunity to strengthen their leadership, deepen their biblical understanding, and gain practical tools they can bring back to their churches, ministries, and organizations.

This year’s featured speaker will be Dr. Pablo Deiros, a recognized author, historian, and educator who has dedicated his work to developing leaders throughout Latin America. Dr. Deiros will bring his experience in ministry and theological education to LPU, helping participants consider how they can communicate the message of Christ more effectively and lead with greater purpose and biblical conviction.

The Cumbre de Liderazgo is part of Life Pacific University’s continued commitment to equipping Hispanic pastors, ministry leaders, students, and families through accessible Christ-centered education. Through Spanish-language academic programs, leadership gatherings, ministry partnerships, and other resources, LPU is creating pathways for leaders to grow in their calling while remaining connected to the churches and communities they serve.

As part of the event, LPU will also host a Feria del Libro, or Book Fair, from noon to 1:30 p.m. Attendees will be able to explore books, ministry resources, and other materials selected to support their personal, spiritual, and leadership development. Authors may also apply to participate in the Book Fair and present their work at no cost.

The 2026 Cumbre de Liderazgo reflects LPU’s belief that healthy churches and communities are strengthened by leaders who are committed to continued learning, biblical formation, and faithful service. Whether participants are leading a congregation, ministry, educational program, nonprofit organization, or community initiative, the Cumbre will provide space to learn, worship, build relationships, and be renewed in their calling.

Registration is free, and advance registration is encouraged.
