Commencement
2025 Commencement at Nazarene Bible College
Graduation is the culmination of years of disciplined studies and the commencement of a new season of ministry leadership that we pray will produce a great harvest for our Lord and His Kingdom.
Just as NBC pioneered online ministry preparation over twenty years ago by bringing the education to the student instead of the student to the education, the college will now do the same with our commencement celebrations. Beginning the 2022-2023 academic year, instead of inviting graduates and their families to commencement, NBC is planning to bring the commencement celebration to the graduates.
The college will not host a commencement celebration in May. Instead, NBC will bring a very special commencement celebration to you through your local church. A representative of NBC will work with you and your local church leadership to plan a ten-minute ceremony in recognition of your academic achievements and awards featuring all the pomp and circumstance of commencement with regalia, complemented by a celebratory gathering before or after the service. The on-site event will allow more of those who love you and have supported your journey to celebrate with you.
All eligible graduates will be contacted personally regarding dates and logistics. We pray that bringing commencement to our graduates will increase the number of participants and the joy of the celebration for this class and every class that follows.
