II Timothy 2:15

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that need not be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.”

Our Purpose

To encourage the youth of our church congregation in a continuing educational process by providing a Scholarship Award each year. We research for funding and information on other available resources for financial aid. We network with various local organizations, church auxiliaries, state and national programs to gather information on the scholarships or grants they may be sponsoring for students seeking to attain a higher education.

Our Objective

To assist in directing those who wish to seek scholarship/grant funding through various avenues of available resources.

Psalm 127:3

“Behold children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb is a reward.”
