Leader: Lord, we have each been given a vision of our potential. We now present this class to you in this time of crisis and opportunity. Help them to use their abilities wisely.

Graduates: Step by Step, but ever forward, we accept the vision and the challenge to partake in the life of service. We recognize that we are gifted differently, not because we should be separate or alienated from each other.

We are different, precisely in order to realize our need for each other.

Faculty/Staff/Administration: We have guided, nurtured, and shaped you during your years at Washington Adventist University. As you leave, we pray for your continued progress to serve in families and corporations, in businesses and schools, in hospitals and houses of worship—teaching, ministering, healing, working for justice and equality.

Parents: Lord, may they use their talents for the good of humanity—knowing that their maturity will be judged by how well they are able to disagree and yet continue to love one another, to cherish one another, to seek the greater good of one another.

Consecration

Friday, May 1, 2015 ! 8:00 P.M. Leader: Forgive us, Lord, for having treated with disdain the weak, the poor, the unemployed, the “failures.”

Graduates: Forgive us for not showing compassion and care, for making power and money the gods at whose altars we have bowed our knees. Now give us the skills to influence history.

Faculty/Staff/Administration: Lord, give them all the courage to acknowledge our inadequacies and to rely on You for strength to act justly.

Graduates: Give us wisdom to understand and to act, to use our diverse talents faithfully—not for personal advancement but for ministering to our fractured homes and communities. Give us wisdom to influence history.

Congregation: Give them good judgment to be models of authentic living so others can learn of your love.

Protect them from the gods of power, gold, and greed.

Graduates: As we leave the protection and support of this campus environment, give us your strength and wisdom to face our new world to move step by step, but ever forward.

All: Do not be afraid; God has promised to be with you. Lord, give them the audacious compassion to be the humble servants this world needs.

Leader: Lord, help the graduates to always keep the vision in their view, to have the calling in their hearts to live a life of service.

Graduates: Lord, with our varied gifts and abilities, we accept this charge and present ourselves to be consecrated for active service to humanity. ~ Joan Francis

The Adrian T. Westney Award for Excellence in Community Service Dr. Adrian T. Westney (1927-2009), an exemplary pastor and educator, was a 1962 graduate of Washington Adventist University and is listed in an online article as one of its outstanding graduates. Born on the island of Jamaica and receiving his initial education there, Dr. Westney worked on two continents (North and South America), various islands of the Caribbean Sea (including Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, and Barbados), and several states in the United States of America. He served the Church at various levels, including district pastor, teacher, dean of men, academy principal, local conference departmental director, and union conference departmental director. He had a long and distinguished career in ministry exemplified by service in and dedication to education, educational administration, religious liberty, pastoral care, and broadcasting.

Dr. Westney was a mentor to many, a confidant to more than a few, an inspiration to thousands, a leader of leaders, a guide and nurturer of many troubled souls, and a beloved chaplain to many veterans and sick or needy persons. A visionary leader, he performed selfless service and saw innovation through the founding of churches, schools, homes for the aged, and innovative programs. He brought the phrase “religious liberty” into the homes and vocabulary of thousands of people in the Washington, D.C., area through his weekly WGTS 91.9 radio program “Talking About Freedom.” He was truly a diplomatic trailblazer who gave yeoman’s service to God, society, and “the least of these.” A quote from his biographical tribute reads: “The life of Adrian Westney can be characterized as untiring service to mankind.

In addition to his official work, Adrian gave of his time and talents, and established needed support systems for his church and community. . .”

The Adrian T. Westney Award for Excellence in Community Service is a reminder of what Dr. Westney stood for—unparalleled dedication, unmatched performance, inspirational service that goes “above and beyond”. Each of the recipients, in his or her own way, demonstrates the essence of what Dr. Westney saw as the special and challenging responsibility of comprehensive and empathic service.

Speaker Biographies PASTOR PAUL GRAHAM Pastor Paul Graham is a native of Brooklyn, New York, where he was raised by God-fearing parents. He attended Oakwood College, where he graduated with a B.A. in Theology, and subsequently attended Andrews University, where he received his Master’s in Divinity.

After Divinity School he spent 13 years doing ministry in the New York area, where he has been engaged in youth and young adult ministries. He presents each message with the intention of motivating his listeners to prepare themselves for the soon coming of Christ and to work in His vineyard. In 2002, Full Circle Ministries was developed to empower youth and young adults to participate in evangelism and wholesome activities, reaching both churched and unchurched people. This ministry has reached across the country and abroad with God’s leading.

Ordained to the gospel ministry, he has worked as a pastor for five congregations in the Northeastern Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, serving there as youth pastor and as a counselor and chaplain to the schools assigned to the Youth Advisory Committee. He has also served on the ministerial board.

Pastor Graham loves teaching the Word of God and helping as many as possible gain a better understanding of the Gospel and stronger walk with the Master. Through much prayer, he accepted the call to Potomac Conference at The Bowie Project, which is now Restoration Praise Center. Pastor Graham enjoys teaching as an adjunct in Religion at Washington Adventist University. He believes he can do all things through Christ.

He is married to Windy Spence-Graham and has two beautiful children, Zenovia and Spencer, who take up all of his spare time.

Speaker Biographies PASTOR BRENDA LANGFORD-BILLINGY Senior Pastor of the Metropolitan Seventh-day Adventist Church It was on the tropical twin-island paradise of Trinidad & Tobago, where a soft breeze caresses the air, that Pastor Brenda LangfordBillingy began her journey, each step being ordered by God. It was there she met, and later married, her lifetime partner of 38 years, Edsel Billingy, son of Pastor T. T. Billingy. God blessed this union with two talented children, Rhonda, a graduate of Columbia University, and Shana, a graduate of the University of Baltimore Law School.

Pastor Billingy’s educational pursuits earned her two Bachelor of Arts degrees - one in Religion and another in Psychology from Columbia Union College. She is also a graduate of Howard University, with a Master of Arts degree in Education and Counseling.

With a love for God and obedience to his leading, Pastor Billingy developed a passion for creative writing and public speaking that afforded her countless opportunities to minister to audiences throughout the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, and the Caribbean. Through these means, God prepared and equipped her for His call into fulltime pastoral ministry.

In September 2000 Pastor Billingy became the Associate Pastor of the Metropolitan Seventhday Adventist Church in Hyattsville, Maryland. In 2004, she was commissioned by the Allegheny East Conference and assigned to serve the Bladensburg Seventh-day Adventist church in Bladensburg, Maryland as its Pastor.

In 2008 she was installed as the Senior Pastor of the Metropolitan Seventh-day Adventist Church in Hyattsville. In 2013 she was given an additional assignment to serve as the Associate Ministerial Director for the North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists, recruiting and mentoring women into pastoral ministry. Pastor Billingy gives God all the glory for what He has done in her life, and she would like to be known as “a humble vessel willing to be used by God.”

Academic Regalia The black caps and gowns worn by the students, faculty, and staff in the academic procession have been the traditional costume of scholars since medieval times. In the United States, it is more commonly referred to as academic regalia.

Most colleges and universities in the United States have adopted the uniform code for costumes drafted by an intercollegiate commission in 1893 and later formally adopted by the American Council on Education in 1959. Each of the three academic degrees—bachelor, master, and doctoral—has its own distinctive gown and hood. The bachelor’s gown is distinguished by its long, pointed sleeve. The master’s gown has a longer, narrower closed sleeve extending below the knee; the arm fits through a slit at the elbow. The doctor’s gown has a full, bell-shaped sleeve trimmed with three bars of velvet. The velvet trim on the gown can be black or a color indicating the wearer’s general field of learning—for example, green for medicine or purple for law. A list of departments and colors follow: Business Administration—drab Communications—gray Economics—copper Education—light blue Law—purple Liberal Arts, Humanities—white Library Science—lemon Medicine—green Music—pink Nursing—apricot Philosophy—dark blue Public Administration—peacock blue Public Health—salmon Physical Education—sage green Social and Natural Sciences—golden yellow Social Work—citron Theology—scarlet The most colorful and distinctive part of the academic costume is the hood extending down the back.

The doctor’s hood is the largest, and the bachelor’s hood is the smallest.

Silk lining of various colors in the center of the hood indicates the college or university that conferred the degree. Consistent for all degrees is the cap, or mortar board, which has a tassel of black or another color indicating the field of learning. The tassel of the doctor’s cap can be gold.

Some institutions of higher learning include cords or stoles as a component of the academic costume to represent certain achievements and honors. Washington Adventist University graduates are awarded silver cords to represent departmental distinction and gold cords to indicate academic honors.
