God gave us a beautiful Spring day on Friday, June 11, 2010 when Commencement Services took place for the Prayer Warriors session at Crestmont Rose Garden.  Colonel William Harfoot presided over the ceremony that included musical accompaniment by the Territorial Youth Band and the College for Officer Training Chorus singing the Session Song "Prayer Warriors" written by Cadets Peter Pemberton and Michelle Josephson and music by Mr. Duncan Sutton.  Major Brian Jones offered the opening prayer and Mr. Jim Reeves, Chair of the Crestmont Council gave the Words of Greeting.  The Commencement Address was given by Lt. Colonel David Hudson who spoke words of encouragement and shared delightful anecdotes of personal experience to the graduating Cadets.
