GOD NEVER FAILS
Refrain
God never fails. God never fails.
He abides in me. He gives me victory.
No, God never fails! Just keep the faith,
And never cease to pray; just walk
Upright, call Him noon, day or night,
Hell be there, hell be there, Theres
No need to worry, for God never fails!
Verse 1
I never worry, I never fret; For God Almighty
Has never failed me yet. Though buked and
Scorned, I know that Ive been reborn,
For God never fails.
Refrain
Verse 2
No need to worry, no need to cry; Ive got my
Lord, I know He is on my side.
Daily I will trust, I never shall doubt Him,
For God never fails.

earned in accord with that status.

Minister: Candidate(s), hearing these a rmaons made in the presence of God, do you now
accept the identy and responsibilies of manhood that have been conferred upon you by your

Candidates: As I have put aside my childish ways, I accept the wisdom of my elders who have
guided me into manhood and I pledge to demonstrate with my heart, mind, soul and body that
I am the man you have recognized.

The Push Out!
Facts
In the 2008-09 school year, there were more than 40,000 students suspended and 600
students expelled from Chicago Public Schools.
Black males make up 23% of Chicago Public Schools students but 48% of suspensions
and 57% of expulsions.
This disparity mirrors the over representation of minorities in prisons and in jails.
In 2007 Chicago Public Schools adopted the Restorative Justice philosophy BUT only as a
voluntary option.
WHAT IS NEEDED IS FULL IMPLEMENTATION OF RESTORATIVE
PRACTICES IN OUR SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITY!

And may rain gently fall upon your eld.
May God keep you in the hollow
of Gods Hand unl we meet again.
Go in peace.
