blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from
all sin.   I John 1:7

Congratulations

We Honor Our Graduates of 2008


Graduate-I usually refer to Webster when defining words but he did not quite measure up to what I think of when I define graduate. According to Miss Brenda graduate means to end one part of your life and begin another. A degree of advancement. Today we wish to honor several people who are experiencing that in their lives.   -Brenda Williams, Graduate Sunday.

Her future plans are to graduate with a Doctoral Degree in Pharmacy.

Samantha is graduated from Honeoye Falls-Lima HS. She will be attending SUNY Cobleskill and plans to major in Culinary Arts. Her future plans are to eventually open a restaurant of her own but beforehand to hopefully work at a great and well-known restaurant. She hopes to be involved in various clubs and activities including choir and any other clubs that catch her interest.

John-Martin graduated from Brockport High School. His childhood dream of wrestling for a Division One College team, will become a reality as he attends the University of Buffalo in the fall on a wrestling scholarship. He hopes to pursue a career in elementary education and plans to coach wrestling one day. He was a 2008 Urban League Black Scholar and received the News 10 NBC Scholar Athlete Award.

Wesley graduated from Pittsford Mendon High School. He will pursue an education in Electrical Engineering with a Biomedical focus at Rochester Institute of Technology in the fall. He has received a “Project Lead the Way” Scholarship for engineers and an RIT merit scholarship. Wes will continue his education through a Masters in Engineering and is considering a Law degree in the future. He hopes to be accepted into the rigorous BA/MA five-year engineering program after his freshman year.
