It was 10 years ago that I graduated from Garner High School. I had the privilege of attending a graduation ceremony for some of our youth this evening. It is an invitation only event and each graduate is only allotted a certain number of tickets. Jody and I were thrilled when we got a call from Lauren Faison saying she had an extra ticket for one of us to go! Jody was able to take the afternoon off work so I could go! This class is especially special to Jody and I because they were the first kids in youth group when we came to Stony Hill 6 years ago! This year we had 4 high school graduates, Lauren Faison, Jason Harp, Todd Harrison & Adam Ray. Great kids and I was able to see 3 of them graduate since they attend Wake-Forest Rolesville High School, Adam graduated from Crossroads Christian School! I went with the Faison's so I only have pictures of myself and Lauren. It was hot, there was no AC, but worth it!!! Surprisingly I didn't cry!We wish them all the best of luck in college or wherever life takes them and we sure are going to miss them :-(

I am looking forward to that day in ministry as well. However it has been a few years more than ten since my high school graduation.
