The End is Near

It's Sunday and in a mere six days CTS will hold commencement exercises and another school year will be complete.  This year 29 graduates from 19 countries will receive diplomas, Bachelor of Arts, or Master of Theology degrees.

Amidst all of the graduation excitement, we are also saying farewell to President Roland Q. Dudley and his wife Judy.  They have resigned their post as president after 13 years of service to Continental Theological Seminary.  On 1 July, our new president, Dr. Joseph Dimitrov, will take office.  Thanks for continuing to pray for this transition.

Here's the week lineup of activities:
Tuesday - my family arrives for 2 days in Belgium
Wednesday - Graduation rehearsal - 14:00
Thursday - Baccalaureate - 09:00; Dudley Farewell Reception - 19:30
Friday - Graduation Banquet - 18:00
Saturday - Graduation - 14:30; Faculty Staff Dinner - 19:00

After graduation starts a busy summer of wrapping up the past school year, preparing for next year, as well as hosting work teams and conferences.

Thanks for your prayers!
