Graduate’s Father Speaks at Baccalaureate

Weekly Portraits of Calvary Life

As is traditional at Calvary, the father of one of this year’s graduates spoke at the Baccalaureate Service on May 4.  Steve Wong is the senior pastor of Fellowship Bible Church in Belmont, California, and the father of Karinna Wong.  He challenged the graduates to face their fears, because God is more powerful than any fear with which they struggle.  2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”  Reverend Wong also did a great Cowardly Lion impression!

Weekly Portraits of Calvary Life

On Friday, May 5, our graduates participated in the annual Baccalaureate Service.  This year’s speaker was James Payne, a 1987 Calvary alumnus and father of graduate Nick Payne.  Mr. Payne started his message by making sure we all understood the definition of “baccalaureate.”  He went on to remind the graduates that they have learned the truth during their time at Calvary.  Now they need to go out and seek wisdom through experience and applying their knowledge to “real life.”  Stay tuned for next week’s Part 3 when I will recap the actual Commencement exercises!
