My Favorite Graduation Ever

16 Jun

“If I had to pick one word to describe the Class of 2007, it would be ‘worshipers.'” – Dr. Sue Gregg

“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.” (John 4:23)

What are you doing to continually grow in the wisdom and knowledge of God!

Yesterday evening (June 15), I had the distinct privilege to participate in the graduation service for the Class of 2007 for the Northern Virginia Extension Campus of Life Christian University (LCU). The graduation celebration took place at the relatively new Germanna Center for Advance Technology in Culpeper.

Even though I had only taken classes at LCU for three months (January – March 2007) and was not receiving any certificate, I was still allowed to wear a cap and gown and join with the others who were receiving certificates.

While I’ve been to numerous graduation services before, including my own graduations from high school, college, and medical school and my children’s graduations from high school and college, this was my favorite one. Why? For numerous reasons.

This was the first graduation service I ever attended in which fervent worship of God was integrated throughout the service. The graduates were men and women with intense passion for Jesus. Every speaker was full of godly wisdom. The MC was my good friend, Michael Stay. Dr. Douglas Wingate, the Founder and President of LCU, came to Culpeper for the first time as the keynote speaker for this 10 year anniversary celebration of our local LCU campus.

I could go on and on. However, since a picture is worth a thousand words, I’ve included photos from this glorious event at today’s Link of the Day. Enjoy!!!
