This past week/weekend was graduation for our seniors!!! I teach the senior sunday school class, so this year is especially exciting and sad at the same time! This year we had 12 seniors that graduated throughout last week (our church serves several different high schools). Two Saturdays ago we had a dinner to honor them...
(pictured are 9 of our seniors as well as Sunday school teachers and youth pastor :)
The following Sunday morning we recognized our seniors during our 11am service. They each wore their schools cap and gown, tassels, cords & medals (academic achievements) entered to the graduation march, were called up one by one and given a graduation gift while showing a baby picture as well as their senior picture on the screen behind them :) What a fun way to recognize this huge accomplishment in the lives of our students!!!
Jody was able to see 2 graduation ceremonies and see 6 of our seniors actually walk across the stage and receive their diplomas. I was able to go to one graduation and see 2 of our students walk :) Each graduation required a ticket, since there were so many students, tickets were very limited! We were thankful our students were able to snag an extra ticket or two for us to go and share this special moment!!!
Forgive these pictures, I took them with my phone and it was dark both inside during the ceremony and outside! These are the two I was able to see!
Congratulations to all our graduates, we're so proud of you!!!
