Let us remain silent and remember the presence of God in our midst. In the name………

Heavenly Father, as we enter this room , we bring Your presence with us.

You have touched us by the wonders of what you do in our lives .You are really great! We praise and thank for Your unconditional love and for the times we have felt specially loved by you.For the bountiful blessings that you continuously bestow unto us, for the continuous guidance and protection,we praise you.

Thank You for sending us Your Son, Jesus, not to condemn us but to save us. We are truly blessed! We thank You for calling us to share Christ’s mission in this world. Most of all, for the gift of person of each one of us who are gathered here this morning, the brilliant chairman of the panelist ,Ma’am Lilian Enriquez, our beloved dean , our advisers, the members of the panel,the members of the school administration ,and the masteral and doctoral students who will be defending their thesis and dissertation today.

We feel sorry for the times we have offended You to prove Your presence in our lives and in the world. Teach us to forgive those who have wronged us and give us the grace to ask forgiveness from those whom we have deprived of our love and concern.

Loving
