2025 Traditional Undergraduate Class Blessing

by Sydney Elmore '25, Campus Ministry Director

Graduates Praying

Lord, we thank you for today and for allowing us to gather here to celebrate all that we have accomplished.

Graduates, may you walk forward with courage, knowing that the same God who brought you through late nights, hard classes, and unexpected turns still goes with you.

May you walk into the world with clarity, knowing that your life matters—that your voice, your gifts, your story have a purpose.

May your heart stay soft enough to serve with love, even when it's hard.

May you find joy that’s deep, peace that lasts, and a calling that stirs your soul.

When the path is unclear, may you remember who you are—and whose you are. 

And may this community, though we scatter, always remind us that we were formed by something good together. 

May the Lord bless you and keep you. Go in peace—Amen.
