Graduation Day Has Arrived!

This message is from Jean-Ronel Joseph, our dear friend, who will graduate tomorrow after a two year theological program in St Vincent. He has been away from his family and home in Haiti for two years. Ours has been a relationship and friendship of mutual support. We are very proud that Jean-Ronel was the first recipient of a Be the Power of One Higher Education Scholarship. Well done!


"DEAR GOD THANK YOU FOR THOSE GREAT PEOPLE YOU HAVE SOURRENDED US HERE AT WISE WITH, TO TEACH HOW TO LOVE YOU AND YOUR PEOPLE. IT HAS BEEN A HUGE BLESSING TO BE HAVING THIS WONDERFUL PRIVILEGE TO ACCUMULATE ALL THESE KNOWLEDGES HERE AT WISE. WE, AS THE FUTURE GRADUATES ARE SO THANKFUL TOWARDS YOU GOD AND ALSO THOSE GREAT, LOVING, KIND, GENTLE...PEOPLE.
WE HAD A LAST FUN WITH THEM TONIGHT, NOT ONLY THE FACULTY TOOK US TO A NICE HOTEL IN ST VINCENT FOR DINNER BUT ALSO WE HAD GREAT FUN WHEN WE CAME BACK WITH THE OTHER STUDENTS.
IT HAS BEEN A HUGE BLESSING, THE WORK IS NOT FINISH YET; HOPEFULLY WE'LL HAVE TO SPRINT TO THE FINISH LINE AS OUR HOMILETICS TEACHER WOULD SAY.
IN LIFE WE GRADUATE EVERYDAY SO, WE COUNT IN YOUR PRAY SO THAT WE CAN GO BACK IN OUR COUNTRY AND USE THOSE ACCUMULATING KNOWLEDGES FOR THE PROFIT OF CHRIST'S KINGDOM, BECAUSE HE IS RISEN AND THE TOMB IS EMPTY...WE ARE VICTORIOUS...
THANK YOU EACH AND EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT WHETHER BY PRAYER, FINANCIALLY... I INTEND TO CALL EVERYONE BY NAME TO SAY THANK YOU, BUT I REALIZE FACEBOOK WON'T HAVE ENOUGH PLACE FOR THAT. I KNOW WORDS CAN'T EXPRESS MY THANKFULNESS TO YOU, BUT I JUST WANNA TAKE THIS SPOT IN THIS JOYFUL MOMENT TO SAY THANK YOU TO YOU ALL..
I LOVE YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART, I REALLY ENJOY YOUR PARTNERSHIP IN THE GOSPEL...PHILIPPIANS 1:3-6

THE GRADUATES I LOVE YOU ALL THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE….."
