Congratulations, Graduates!
Thank you to all of our guests who joined us on Sunday, May 19 for our graduation ceremony honoring our Class of 2024! Several members of the class spoke to their peers, they received their diplomas and heard from High School Principal Neil Berry, and of course, celebrated with friends and family!
Student Speakers
Alexis Willbrand: Academics
“The difference between simply learning and obtaining wisdom is that wisdom is enriched in God’s word and truth, altering how we view life. It gives us a purpose, a plan, and the courage to live that out.”
Elly Hartnell: Arts
“When we participate in the arts… we are individually reflecting God’s attributes and character through various creative ways of expression. We are also learning to unashamedly proclaim to the world that the things we accomplish are only possible through Him working through and in us.”
Isaac States: Athletics
“If we allow God to work in our lives, we will be able to further his kingdom by accomplishing the impossible. Acknowledging our dependance on God who gives us strength will help us see our life differently.”
Cohen Ring: Faith Formation
“Having God’s word implemented into lectures, activities, and conversations has been essential for providing students with a space to grow closer to God. Within that space, we are blessed to have the freedom to discuss our faith opening… having these relationships where we can wrestle with our questions truly helps us strengthen every piece of the armor of God.”
Lucy Swinigan: Relationships & Service
“We have been encouraged to embrace the call to serve with humility and love…. these service opportunities have helped shape and build us. Things like grace, humility, and service become key aspects of our lives when we serve our community.”
A Moment For Prayer
During the ceremony, our graduates spread out around the room and were met by their parents for an intimate moment in prayer. The room was full of emotions as parents and their graduates took time to thank God for their years as a part of our community.
Class of 2025: We’re Ready For You!
We’re looking forward to celebrating the first ever graduating class from Veritas Christian Academy! The countdown is on!
