O Lord our God, you are
our strength in adversity,
our health in weakness,
our comfort in sorrow.
We praise and thank you for the many gifts
that you have given to our graduates,
and for bringing them to this important milestone in their lives.
We ask you to bless them,
keep their faith strong,
and remain with them always.
Wherever they go next,
please guide them by your wisdom,
fill them with your strength,
and help them to use their education generously and honestly.
We ask this through Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
Amen.
