Baccalaureate Service


“For I know well the plans I have in mind for you—oracle of the Lord—plans for your welfare and not for woe, so as to give you a future of hope.”

During our baccalaureate service we rejoice in the good work that God has begun in our young people and send them forth with hope that their future is filled with blessings from the Lord.

Opening Song 10,000 Reasons (Bless the Lord)

Spirit & Song #270

Collect Prayer by Robert Feduccia

Lord of our journey,
you lead your people Israel through the Red Sea,
through the desert, and into the Promised Land
by a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar fire by night.
As we continue down the path of life,
may our eyes be fixed on you
and your purpose for our lives
so that in all times and in all places
we may be counted as your disciples.
We ask this through your Son and our Lord, Jesus Christ,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever. Amen.
