Dear Graduates and Completers:

VIA! VERITAS! VITA!

In the Holy Scriptures, Jesus Christ said that He is the Way (VIA), the Truth (VERITAS) and the Life (VITA) (John 14:6). As you are about to receive your diplomas and certificates from your beloved Alma Mater, you are invited to imitate and follow Jesus Christ, the Way, the Truth and the Life (Via, Veritas, Vita).

You are challenge to be the Way (Via) to others. To guide others to the right road of our lives. To lead them the road to a better life despite of the challenges. By helping others, you will become a better person.

Truth (Veritas) sets you free. Be a promoter of truth. People trust you if you are the bearer of truth. Truth is a greater virtue that makes life a joyful one.

Value life (Vita) because it is the greatest gift from God to you. You should take care of yourself-physically, mentally, emotionally. Refrain from vices and respect the lives of others.

As you leave the portals of your beloved educational institution, never forget to thank God, your parents, teachers, school personnel, fellow learners, your family and others who have helped your studies. Value the way, truth and life.

Congratulations on your graduation and completion day!

Always remember BE A VIA, VERITAS AND VITA to yourself and for others!

Godspeed!
