Grad Highlight: Jordan [By Scott]

Jordan Keating graduated from the program in February of 2021. Jordan excelled in the program and attained our highest promotional rank that students can achieve as they work hard and gain more opportunities. Jordan consistently pushed himself to grow during the program, and worked hard to develop an unshakeable faith and the capacity to remain grounded in the highs and lows of life.

Jordan has stayed local since graduating and is working for the local disposal company, all while piloting our Etna Workforce Program and living in the “Hamilton House,” a new residence that was graciously donated to Rockside for students who want to stay local and remain connected to the community and positive structures in the area while they work. His supervisors at the disposal company have mentioned that if Jordan reflects the kind of quality they can expect from a Rockside Graduate, they’ll take as many as we can send their way!

This August, Jordan will be moving to Chicago, Illinois to attend Moody Bible Institute, where he will pursue an education in ministry and biblical studies. Jordan has a passion for education and missions and is hoping to receive training to enter into vocational ministry.
