Christian Educators Association International (CEAI) held its 2nd annual Osceola County
Honor the Grads event on Monday, May 15, 2017 at First Christian Church in Kissimmee, FL. These honored graduates were chosen by
their peers because they lived their Christ-like walk through their high school
years. Osceola County’s event was
modeled after St. Johns County where they have a 20-year tradition of honoring
their seniors. Students at each high
school were asked to nominate and select seniors who have boldly walked out
their Christian faith over the course of their high school careers. The groups represented Fellowship of
Christian Athletes clubs that were active in our Osceola County high schools. The following schools
were represented:
Celebration High School
Jesus Rojas
Emily Molen
Gateway High
School
Viviana Lara
Adam Espinosa
Harmony High
School
Linsey Jean Cheney
Liberty High School
Mynaishka Domenech
Osceola High School
Lydia Crose
Jose Cuevas
St. Cloud High
School
Helena Rodriguez
Brian Delgado
This prestigious award may be the most
important award these students could ever receive. Each one graciously thanked CEAI, their parents and the many support systems of people that brought them to
this point. They shared stories of being in Christian families and being in the
faith since their youth, but a common thread for each was their personal
relationship with Jesus Christ.
Some of their future plans include:
University of South Florida, the Marines, becoming a pharmacist and the University of Central Florida.
Several of the honorees shared a favorite
scripture which included:
All honorees blessed us with heartfelt messages that included leaving a "footprint" in life, knowing you are not alone in Christ, giving God the glory and the vision of revival in Osceola County.
All honorees received a medallion for
graduation, a certificate and a $100 scholarship for their future plans.
Congratulations to each honored graduate and their families.
A special thank you to Mr. Eric Dimmick, our Osceola County FCA
representative. Thank you also to Kissimmee First Christian Church for use of the beautiful facility and the tech support. Thank you to Eddie Cortes for guiding the program and Marshall Mabry for giving us a worshipful start with two beautiful songs. And thank you to God for
this event and these Christ-loving seniors!
As always, I am prayerfully yours,
K
