The text of Erica Corder's commencement speech:
Throughout these lessons, our teachers, parents and, let's not forget, our peers have supported and encouraged us along the way.
Thank you all for the past four amazing years. Because of your love and devotion to our success, we have all learned how to endure change and remain strong individuals.
We are all capable of standing firm and expressing our own beliefs, which is why I need to tell you about someone who loves you more than you could ever imagine.
He died for you on a cross over 2,000 years ago, yet was resurrected and is living today in heaven.
His name is Jesus Christ.
If you don't already know him personally, I encourage you to find out more about the sacrifice he made for you, so that you now have the opportunity to live in eternity with him.
And we also encourage you, now that we are all ready to encounter the biggest change in our lives thus far - the transition from childhood to adulthood - to leave Lewis-Palmer with confidence and integrity.
Congratulations, Class of 2006.
