Consilium Retreat 2005

The CCL has two main components. Programs for students consist of Campus-wide Vocational Mentoring (open to all students), and a Pre-Ministry Program to recruit, identify and encourage students to pursue callings to the ministry. For ordained and lay leaders, Continuing Education Programs address ongoing educational needs.

Hanover College, through its chaplaincy and other departments, is committed to help those students who are interested to discern their calling to either ordained or lay ministries.  Active engagement in mentoring students beyond the classroom and helping them plan for life after graduation is a major focus of the CCL.

As the only Presbyterian college in Indiana, Hanover recognizes the importance of its historic relationship with the Presbyterian Church and wishes to strengthen that relationship in new ways that provide mutual benefit to the college and the church.

The CCL seeks to recruit and engage students who wish to enter the Pre-Ministry Program, students who will graduate to serve the church as ordained or lay leaders.  By serving the needs of the individual and the church, the college believes it will attract philanthropic partners -- congregations and individuals -- who recognize the need and the value of producing leaders educated in the liberal arts.
