Those of us who have received the Lord’s call to serve Him in the New Church ministry have been manifested in Him. The Lord’s presence is now upon you graduates as good servants who are going out to serve Him in His heavenly ministry of the New Church. We are honored and humbled to thank the General Church Central Offices, the Dean of the Theological School of Bryn Athyn College of the New Church, all our responsible tutors, and the Keugata Theological School leadership for their mutual support to the success of this training. We sincerely wish our four students good luck in their efforts and dedication, and in their services to the Lord’s ministry. Let us forget the ups and downs that we experienced during your training period as we remain looking forward, and focus on the growth and fruitfulness of our Church. It is our prayer to the Lord: “Grant, O Lord, that the truth of Your Word may be engraved in our hearts, and bear fruit to the salvation of our souls, and to the honor and glory of Your holy name, now and evermore. Amen.” 53
