Happy Graduation!

In the Centro District Assembly we celebrated the graduation of 5 students. This is the most we have ever had in one district in a single year. It was a very exciting time for me as well. Most of my time is spent in keeping track of the students grades and classes. In a small way I helped these students graduate. At the graduation ceremony each student was able to share a short testimony. Eddis, second from left was so happy that I could hardly understand her. She Praised God for giving her the strength and perseverance to finish her studies. She started in 1994 that’s 13 years to finish her degree. Graduation was something she dreamed about and it had finally happened. The first class she took, she didn’t pass. The teacher Paul Andrus gave her an incomplete, but told her “I believe you can do this. I believe that some day you can graduate”. Those words helped her along the very long process to graduate. You never know what influence you will have on the life of another person
