One thing that's great about North Valley Friends is that each year we have a worship service that celebrates our high school graduates. We play a "name that graduate" game (in which we win chocolate!), and the youth pastor gives a message that encourages them and the rest of us. This year, Leslie Murray, the youth pastor, had mentors of each of the youth write a letter to them/about them that records some of their gifts and strengths, and ways they've seen the graduates grow.
