The Italy High School seniors and Principal Scott Herald spent a pleasurable evening at Union Baptist Church of Italy on Wednesday night. The church hosted a hot dog supper in their beautiful fellowship hall and the students appreciated a message from the pastor.

Rev. Algua Ray Issac told the students, “After graduation, I want you to press forward. It is time for you to have responsibilities. Some may decide to go on to college, others may go on to a job, while others might get married. Whatever you do, I encourage you to keep your hand in God’s hand in all of your decisions. Remember to put your best foot forward and do the best you can in all that you do. That’s all anyone can ask of you is to do your best. That’s all you can ask of yourself. If you do this, you will always succeed.” Rev. Issac thanked all of the students for attending the cookout and they were always welcome back anytime. He prayed for God’s blessing on each graduate.
