For the first time in 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023s history, a father-son duo will address graduates at 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023s fall commencement ceremonies. Approximately 165 graduate students and 230 undergraduate students will receive their diplomas December 21, 2012.
In light of this years university From This Place: Proclaiming Good News in a Changing World President Barry H. Corey selected father-son team Rev. Adrian De Visser and Prashan De Visser to speak, whose respective ministries illustrate the truth that the Good News does not change, even though the way it is proclaimed might change generation to generation.
De Visser is the founder and senior pastor of Kithu Sevana Ministries in Sri Lanka, a missions-oriented church-planting organization with a burden for reaching those in areas and communities hitherto unreached by the gospel. Prashan, 25, is the president and founder of Sri Lanka Unites, a youth movement for hope and reconciliation in post-war Sri Lanka. Prashan will be the youngest speaker to ever address graduates at a 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023 commencement ceremony.
The graduate ceremony will take place at 2 p.m. and the undergraduate ceremony will take place at 7:30 p.m. in Chase Gymnasium.
The 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023 Symphony Orchestra, as well as 晩晩当際際夊消消夊2023s mens a cappella group, The King's Men, will perform.
