Board meetings and strategic plans from Texas College
The document details the opening worship service for the annual Religious Emphasis Week observance at Texas College. The theme for the week is "Envisioning The Future, Embracing The Possibilities And Invigorating The Mission," based on Nehemiah 4:12-14. Key segments included an introduction by the campus minister, Rev. Dr. Jamiel Capers, remarks from President Dr. Dwight J. Fennell, and a prayer. The main message was delivered by Dr. Edward Robinson, Professor of History and senior pastor of North Tina Hall Church of Christ, focusing on the acronym 'KFC' (Kindness, Forgiveness, Compassion) based on the parable of the Prodigal Son from Luke 15:20-24. Attendees were invited to subsequent lectures and devotions scheduled for the week.
The event was the 2022 Commencement Exercise, which opened with presentations of the National Anthem and the Negro National Anthem, followed by an invocation. The initial remarks welcomed attendees and recognized the significance of the graduating class of 2022 enduring challenges such as the pandemic, geopolitical unrest, inflation, and unexplained natural occurrences. The speaker offered five nuggets for the graduates' future endeavors: maintaining honesty, balance, commitment, motivation, and gaining experience and knowledge. Greetings were delivered by representatives from the City of Tyler (Mayor Don Warren), the Smith County Commissioner's Court (Joann Hampton), District 3 Northwest (Council Member Dr. Shelly McKeller), and the Texas College Board of Trustees (Patricia McKenzie). The commencement address was delivered by Bishop Marvin F. Thomas, Senior, the 62nd elected bishop of the Christian Methodist Episcopal (CME) Church, highlighting the CME Church's founding of five historically black colleges, including Texas College, and detailing Bishop Thomas's background in ministry and higher education.
