Graduates List, Etc.
Sisters, I want to thank Sister Drusilla King and Sister Deborah Paul for getting these names of graduates to me. Apparently there are no retirees.

I usually find a book (everyone already has a Bible) at Lifeway. Lifeway has a website from which I will order and have sent to the church. I found these were quite appropriate: https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/god-s-promises-for-graduates-class-of-2020-black-niv-P008012195
Total for grads (w/shipping, handling and tax):
$58.21 |
I've already taken care of ordering so they could be delivered ASAP.
The program will be via Zoom, recorded into WMM and saved with an unlisted YouTube link.
On the program agenda:
- Music -- volunteer or royalty free recording
- Opening prayer -- volunteer
- Mission/Vision Statements -- volunteer
- Introduction(s) -- volunteer
- Speaker(s) -- Earlier grads from Mt. P . Suggested: R/ McKnight, C. Fountain, D. Williams [2-3 minutes]
- Video/Slide Show Tribute to Grads and retirees (for this, we need 3 photos of each grad, their full names, high school names)
- Closing Prayer
- Call to Discipleship
- Post to Mount Pilgrim's Facebook groups and page
- Web site
- Background agenda to post as share during the program and to email
- Flyers for Emailing
- Pick and purchase book as gift for grads and retirees
- Collect donations (no money is in the budget for the program) for the gifts; might be some in our PC. [I usually go to Lightway Book and Bible for the latest religious read. Everyone should already have their own Bible. Have books delivered to church office where honorees can pick them up. No personalizations /inscriptions this year.
