You all claim to be a Christian school but fail to exemplify the qualities of such when the time calls for it. This is one of the most important moments of this young mans life but you all wish to take that away from him due to a mistake that is routinely made around this country and is a part of growing up. It's easy to claim to be of Christian affiliation, but it takes a lot more to prove it with your actions. I emplore you to take the route of a little more courage and to prove your Christian values with grace in this particular situation.

I don't know much about what happened, but I do know the family and Patrick as well. We all make bad choices in our lives and if we feel convicted, we repent and I assume Patrick has done just that. Our God is a God of grace and we are to show grace as well. I know people that have done absolutely terrible things in life and only because of Gods grace are they able to talk about it and proclaim Gods goodness. I myself have made terrible mistakes and if it wasn't for Gods grace, I would not be where I am today. I pray he walks in graduation this Friday with his pilgrim family by his side and that he holds his head high because of the forgiveness and grace he has received.

Our God is a forgiving God! When He forgives us He forgets the sin! How can anything less be done for this young man! Pilgrim Academy should let him walk with his class and graduate with his class! Is the Academy less forgiving than The Lord???? I hope not!!! This decision may affect this young man's life for many years ahead I hope Pilgrim Academy realizes this!!! Prayerfully, Eldora Olley

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace - Ephesians 1:7
The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against him- Daniel 9:9
as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
-Psalm 103:12

1 mistake shouldn't determine the rest of our life...people make mistakes and yes they should pay for them but this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to walk and he should be allowed to.

I agree to everything that has been said in this petition . Patrick is a great person and his family sacrificed so much for him to receive the great education that he has . just how Christ forgave Us and continues to give us second chances , I feel as though Patrick should receive another chance as well .

So he got in a little trouble. Big deal. No one is perfect. Let him walk and be proud to be graduating.

I agree that he should be allowed to walk because he's been here just as long as I have.
