Graduation!

Sue writes:

Graduation at CLTC is the high point of the year. Joyous families and friends joined the college community last week-end to celebrate the students' accomplishments. This year 36 graduates finished in five different programs.

A group of mostly Solomon Islanders led us in with dancing and lively music.













This group is several men who received Bachelor of Theology degrees. They each wrote a satisfactory 9000-word English thesis which described a theological problem their denomination is facing and
suggested a biblical solution. Their wives received certificates for a Pidgin Bible course. They will be church or Bible college leaders.






Three students earned diplomas in missions. They hope to go out to foreign mission service. The idea of Papua New Guineans going out as missionaries is revolutionary in some national churches.









The gowned students here received diplomas in theology. They are prepared to be church leaders or religious instruction teachers in high schools. The other two students will be women's and children's leaders in churches.

We pray God's blessing on our graduates as they go out to minister on the larger and smaller islands of PNG, the Solomon Islands and other places God leads them. Please pray their lives will make a difference to those around them.
