Kaleo Journey

Kaleo (8th - 12th Graders)


Welcome to Kaleo: A Journey of Faith and Community!

Did you know that being a member of Lebanon Presbyterian Church (LPC) is a choice you make? At LPC, we believe that every student should actively decide to be part of our church family. So we believe that students 8th grade and up should begin to take ownership of their faith. Even if your parents are members, your faith journey is uniquely yours.

In Kaleo, we’ll explore God’s call (“Kaleo”) on our lives to love, follow, and serve Jesus. Together, we will learn what it truly means to follow Christ and be part of our LPC community. This journey includes the option for membership and baptism, allowing you to take ownership of your faith and your relationship with God. 

Meet with an Elder Mentor:
As part of Kaleo, each student will connect with an "Elder Mentor" at least once a month. You and your mentor will choose a convenient time and place to meet each month and discover what it means to follow Jesus. You may request an Elder or you may be matched with one who is a good fit for you. (Andrew, Meg and Pastor Stephanie do the matching so we're sure you'll have a good experience).

Elder Mentor Description:
An Elder (Spiritual Leader) from LPC, either currently serving or having served previously on LPC's Session Board, will meet with you monthly to discuss the fundamentals of the Christian faith. The aim is to equip you with the knowledge and understanding needed to intentionally respond to Jesus’ call in your life. Our goal is not only for you to join LPC but to actively engage with the Gospel and make a personal decision to follow Jesus.

All materials and training for these meetings will be provided by LPC Student Ministries. We’ll meet from December through May, culminating in a special session meeting and brunch in may to welcome you into full membership at LPC.
