Church Event: The Senior Blessing Family Celebration: High School Graduation Ceremony Senior Sunday is a day set aside to recognize the important milemarker these high school graduates are passing. Gifts are presented to each graduate. A display table for each graduate is set up. A banquet is held where grads are challenged and encouraged to make their faith a priority. Each graduate selects a “mentor” to help in their transition in the year following graduation. Parents are shown how to write a spiritual blessing for their child to be presented at the banquet just before graduation.
