Baccalaureate Service this Sunday at Heaston!!!



BACCALAUREATE SERVICE!!!      
[bak-uh-lawr-ee-it]

THIS SUNDAY, May 17th @ 9AM, In the Heaston Youth area... graduating high school students, their families and invited guests will celebrate our graduates with a breakfast honoring them. We'll have a great breakfast, fellowship and a time of praying together! It's always a great time to be together and celebrate with our graduating students.

Later, in front of the entire congregation, during our regular worship time at Heaston,we will recognize the graduates and introduce them briefly and possibly learn and view a brief slideshow of their sweet little selves. : ) 

Just what is a BACCALAUREATE SERVICE anyway...?
A Baccalaureate is a centuries-old religious graduation tradition that started in England, but in the United States, the term generally refers to a non-denominational ceremony held a few days before high school or college graduation.  Baccalaureate ceremonies offer a quieter, more intimate opportunity to pause and reflect on this rite of passage, [and] hear [others] members offer advice to the graduating class.
