@LeeU and the @CogopOfficial International Offices have officially entered into a new strategic partnership to strengthen educational opportunities for COGOP students and deepen the long-standing relationship between the two institutions. The agreement was formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed on May 23, 2025. The partnership designates Lee University as the preferred institution for COGOP high school graduates seeking in-person Christian higher education. It also provides a range of initiatives including targeted recruitment, enhanced student engagement, campus chapel collaborations, internship access for the ministries of the International Offices, and recognition of ministerial training for academic credit. A key component of the agreement includes the provision of an annual $3,000 scholarship for credentialed ministers, bishops, and their dependents who attend Lee University on campus. Verification of eligibility will be conducted through the Office of the Presiding Bishop. Dr. Paul Conn, president of Lee University, said, "We are so pleased that Bishop Coalter and his leadership team are joining with Lee University in this collaboration. We believe it will be a wonderful way for us to develop stronger ties with Church of God of Prophecy families and students. We have had many wonderful students, over many years, from this sister denomination, and we are committed to serve more of them, with even greater effectiveness, as a result of this exciting new partnership. Presiding Bishop Tim Coalter expressed gratitude for the expanded opportunities this collaboration brings. “We deeply appreciate the opportunity this partnership creates for our ministers and their families. Through generous support from Lee University, the path to higher education becomes more accessible for our credentialed ministers' children. At the same time, this agreement allows our ministries to maintain an intentional presence on campus, keeping COGOP students connected to their spiritual roots and our church family. We are excited about what this means for the future of our young people and the Kingdom work ahead.” Additional elements of the agreement include Lee University’s participation at the biennial COGOP International Assembly, promotional collaboration across digital and print channels, and the appointment of an advisory committee to ensure ongoing collaboration and success. More details will be forthcoming. For more information about these institutions, visit leeuniversity.edu or cogop.org.
