Mormon Trails Baccalaureate

I just got home from the 2009 Baccalaureate service, held this year at First Baptist in Humeston. Great service! Kristi Gwinn was the speaker, passing on to the graduates the words God gave her to say, words that came immediately to mind when she received the invitation from the class to be their speaker.

She asked the class
1. to remember their roots in the Lord,
2. to reflect the Lord in their life, and
3. to inspire each other to live into God's purpose.

Kayla Lochmann sang. Her oh-so-beautiful voice was perfect for the jaci velasquez song, "For God So Loved the World" and two others. Kayla rocks.

Also in the service were Gloria Heath and Tyler Watkins (class of '09); teachers Karey Parmer and Claudia Brown; pastors Lyle Ball, Art Anderson and me (Dale O'Connell); and pianist Jayne Miller.

We will recognize our Seniors at the Humeston church this Sunday morning (10:30). Graduation is Sunday afternoon at 3:30.
