“God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.” (II Cor 9:8)

Gracious God of every abundant blessing: we rejoice in the achievements of this year’s graduates. We celebrate Your presence in their lives, through the love and support of parents, siblings, partners, family, dear friends, mentors, teachers, professors, coaches, and other community partners. We are grateful for all who have made this graduation possible. Support and strengthen the graduates as they journey into unknown futures, but grant they would always remember the hope of Jesus Christ offered to them by faith in the Gospel. As they journey into new challenges and new opportunities, may they know Your guidance. In their acts of justice, may they share in every good work to which You have led them. In their concerns and fears, may they know Your peace, which only comes from your Holy Spirit. In their faithful witness, may they know Your covenant love. Bless them and sustain them as they go forth called to serve their neighbor in Your mercy. This we pray in hope and thanksgiving, boldly asking in the Name of our crucified and risen Savior, Jesus Christ the Lord. Amen.
