A Benediction For Graduate Students

Gracious and caring God, our source of light,
We ask for your almighty hand to be upon these graduates as we send them forward.
With their classes and grading now complete,
May they strive toward excellence in all they do.
May they celebrate and lift up those around them.
May their voices rise up to pronounce peace and justice in the world.
May they find bliss in future endeavors and adventures.
May their achievements grow and enrich their communities.
May they discover Holiness in the midst of life's blessings as well life's challenges.
May they conduct their life's work with exceptional skill and integrity
Inspired to Go Forth and Set the World of Fire
From this day onward.
- Adapted from a prayer by Debra Mooney
 

Even though our social distancing has changed the way we are able to celebrate gradations, St. Stephens Parish is excited to honor our 2020 graduates with a virtual slideshow that we will share on our website later this month. 

To send us your child's, or your recent school graduation achievement, please provide the following information no later than Monday, June 15, so that we have time to put together the slideshow. 

Send an email to info@ststephenchurchwarwick.org
In the subject of the email write:
