Finish Line


Dear Seniors & Parents of Seniors,
The end is near.

High school is drawing to a close, and the future which once seemed so far away is now very much near. 
Whatever is next is for you—a 4 year college, a community college, the workforce, home with parents, home that is far, far away, a budding career, or a difficult road—there will be an unavoidable loss of what was, and a transition into what is next.
We believe, as your church community, it is incredibly important that we walk with you during this season of transition and do what we can to help you celebrate where you have been and move toward where you want to be.
This letter is an invitation for you to join us in three separate events to celebrate the past and to prepare for the future and what’s to come.
Let us know as soon as you can which events you are planning to join us for so we can prepare in advance. Parents if you would like to help in planning, leading, or serving at any of this event please let Ruby Varghese know. ruby.varghese@kentcov.org.

Blessings and Praying for you.

Ruby Varghese

Associate Pastor of Student Ministries
