A very happy day. It was the graduation ceremony. The procession was preceded by a bag piper player, Scotland traditional music. I was so grateful that many people came to our graduation: GKI Sacramento, GKI San Francisco, Petaluma Bible Study, First Presbyterian Church of Alameda where Elizabeth worked as a youth director, and our friends in the Seminary and around the area. Elizabeth read Psalm 40 and played her Saxophone during the ceremony.

After the Commencement we had our Thanksgiving and Blessings Gathering, in which we worship together for our graduation and also our engagement. The Gathering was held at the Wesley Hall at the First Methodist Church San Rafael by the generosity of the church and our friend Rev. Alison Henley.

Hari wisuda. Hari yang penuh sukaria. Kami memasuki lapangan dengan berprosesi didahului oleh seorang pemain musik clarinet. Saya sangat bersyukur banyak orang datang ke acara wisuda kami: GKI Sacramento, GKI San Francisco, Petaluma Bible Study, First Presbyterian Church of Alameda di mana Elizabeth melayani sebagai pengarah pelayanan orang muda, dan juga teman-teman kami di Seminary dan sekitarnya. Dalam acara itu Elizabeth membacakan Mazmur 40 dan memainkan Saxophone.

A joyful day with friends. 

Setelah acara wisuda kami berangkat ke Wesley Hall di First Methodis Church San Rafael untuk acara pengucapan syukur dan berkat sehubungan dengan kelulusan dan pertunangan kami. Terima kasih kepada teman kami Rev. Alison Henley dan pihak gereja yang telah memungkinkan kami memakai ruangan tersebut.
