On May 27, NPTS had the privilege of graduating 13 students and honoring 4 who'd completed their program requirements at an earlier date.

Featuring a powerful commencement address by Dr. Soong-Chan Rah and reflective and spoken word pieces by graduates, the service honored the incredible perseverance, discipline, and faith that carried these students through their studies.

We couldn't be more proud of these graduates and their huge accomplishment! Read more about and see photos of the celebration here: https://seminary.northpark.edu/sra/npts-graduates-13-at-ircc/
