So Lord, let all that we do in this new season of serving be a reflection of Your precious renewed guidance. Now, having faith in Your unfailing support, I thank You in the Name of Jesus for how You’re going to bless this new session. Amen and Amen The Pledge of Allegiance was led by President Wagle.
