Graduation

With pride, we celebrate and praise your achievements,
that honors hard work and the courage displayed.
Keep faith in your quest as you cherish these moments.
May your hopes be affirmed, just as we've prayed.

We take great joy in your promising possibilities
and celebrate this journey that you have embraced.
With unwavering confidence, engage opportunities,
in the spirit of love that God surely has graced.

Waste no time on wishes, explore with great daring.
Your life is your duty, fulfill it with faith.
Honor your lessons and grow stronger by caring,
as God's mercy and goodness reveals your fate.

"Remember, God will never ask you to carry
        more than you can lift".

          All we can Love is yours...

                   C.W.S.
