ANNOUNCEMENTS
Welcome to the final service of the academic year and Dr. Warlick’s final service as Dean of the Chapel before
his retirement from HPU. We extend a special welcome to the High Point University Senior Class of 2012.
Following the service, the Board of Stewards will honor the Class of 2013 by presenting them with gifts. Seniors
are asked to remain in the Chapel at the close of the service. Those whose last names begin with A-L should be
seated to the left facing the pulpit; those beginning with M-Z, to the right.
Thank you for being with us tonight. This service is being broadcast live on the internet
at www.highpoint.edu/chapel/services so your family members and friends can view it from their computers
at home.
Thank you to the Chapel Choir directed by Dr. Marc Foster, along with our guest instrumentalists,
for providing the music this evening. We are grateful to the Board of Stewards who served as worship leaders
and ushers. Many thanks to Alpha Gamma Delta sorority who served as our greeters and fellowship hosts.
