Graduation for Pacific Islands Bible College took place at Faith Reformed Church at 4PM on May 12th. We had 16 graduates from all our sites although only 9 participated in the ceremony. Some had finished in December and chose not to return for the event. Mesikt Oderiong from Palau poses in her cap and gown before graduation.
Joe Eram from Chuuk waits for the processional with the rest of his class mates.
Lydia and Sonny (our valedictorian) are both from the island of Yap.
One of the tradtions here is to try to smoother the graduate after the ceremony with all kinds of leis and marmars (on the head). It is really a fun thing to see. Here Percia and Lydia showed off their Leis. Unfortunately my battery died and I don't have as many fun pictures as I would like.
