CONVOCATION SPRING 2015 GRADUATES LAUNCHED SUCCESSFULLY BY KING’S M ore than 120 students of The King’s University celebrated their graduation and the start of the next phase of their lives on May 2, at the joyous Spring Convocation 2015 ceremony. It included an inspiring address by Dr. Jeffrey Greenman, president of Regent College in Vancouver, and a moving personal testimony in the Valedictorian address from graduate Joseph Zondervan. Along with special music by former students and a convocation address by King’s President, Dr. Melanie Humphreys, the day’s celebration also featured a processional by all King’s students and professors and greetings from MLA David Dorward and MP Linda Duncan. A crowded but happy reception with refreshments in the gymnasium at Millwoods Pentecostal Assembly wrapped up the special day. Theme for the graduation, as chosen by the students, was Philippians 4:8: “ Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Dr. Hank Bestman, Vice President Academic Clockwise from top left: Michelle Nguyen, Joesph Zondervan, Anthony Middel, Abbass Hojeij, Mark Muilwijk, Jessi Tomiyama, Vanessa Guylay and Katie Pocock 4 Summer 2015 THE KING’S CONNECTION
