As our students dream, plan, and prepare for their next steps, we want them to know they are not walking this journey alone. Whether they’re applying to college, exploring career paths, or seeking financial support, there are resources available to guide them every step of the way.
God has a purpose for every student’s life, and He equips them with everything they need to walk boldly into their future. Let’s continue to uplift our youth, celebrate their achievements, and surround them with wisdom, support, and prayer.
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” — Proverbs 16:3
