Each of the students took turns at a microphone to offer their personal thanks to the donors and discussed their future after they graduate. One noted that “CIU has had a great impact on my spiritual growth.” Another who is headed to the mission field said, “thanks to all of you for what you have done to make our dreams and our passions come true.” A third student quoted Eph. 3:19 and said, “wherever I go, anywhere I am, I want others to know the love of Christ.”
