ISCF Graduation 2015

ISCF Graduation 2015 exceeded all expectations! There were 12 graduates and 18 guests - board members, sponsors and supporters - in attendance, and we all had a great time of fellowship. 

Fun from the start!
The program began with a welcome and prayer by our Board Chairman, Rodney Mc Intyre, and chairperson Cheryl Jessemy guided us through the program smoothly. There were some really fun icebreakers which facilitated interaction between the graduates and the guest.

This was followed by a time of praise and worship led by Princess Jaggassar, a graduate from TAMCC.

Two students shared their testimonies about the impact of ISCF on their lives as students. Jayna James from Anglican High School spoke about how much she learnt during the meetings, and how she understood better how to interact with students who had different beliefs than she did.

Kishell Ruben, past president of CCCF shared how her involvement in the ministry helped her to take her Christian life more seriously, and to grow spiritually in her walk with the Lord. Shanika and Loraine sang ‘Carry your candle’ to encourage their peers to represent Christ wherever they ended up, and certificates were distributed to all the graduates.

We had the privilege of having Eric Marshall as our speaker for this year’s graduation ceremony. As one of our earliest and most consistant supporters who resided in New York, we were pleased to invite him to share his heart with the graduates. They were encouraged by his testimony of God’s provision for him when he had to advance his studies, not knowing where the funds would come from. He also encouraged them to keep serving the Lord, and to not allow the distractions of the world to lead them astray. He ended his message with the words of Psalm 1:1-2, challenging the students to remain connected to Christ long after they left school.

Board Director Joan Purcell prayed over our graduates, asking God’s provision and direction for them as they moved on to this new phase of their lives. Following a group picture, we enjoyed a sweet time of fellowship over refreshments that no one wanted to end. On top of all of this, we were able to christen our P.A. system, which was donated by ISCF supporters living in the States! 

Covering our graduates with prayer
We give God thanks for the great time of fellowship, testimonies and encouragement which was enjoyed by all who attended.
