Foundation grants over 24 years total $32,084,000. Of that amount, $5,014,000 has been made to further Christian Leadership Development.
These have been for seminary development and scholarships; pastoral, youth, and music residents; post college development, such as Fellows and Nexus; children’s music and church library; and scholarships through PDS, ECS, French Camp, and college music. Some of the fruit includes 76 seminarians; 11 pastoral residents; 30 youth residents; and 14 music ministry interns.
Seminarians have earned a variety of master level degrees at approved reformed seminaries. The goal is to provide support for our members while they are taking theological training, that they may be able to give themselves more fully to intensive study and preparation for serving our Lord Jesus Christ in full time Christian service.
