Minute for Centennial Scholars

April 3, 2022

On Sunday, April 4, 2022 Diane Hart spoke about the families that have subsidized the Centennial Scholars Program for the past 30 years. The program was to provide financial assistance for seminary students for their final two years of seminary who planned to pursue jobs in under resourced/urban ministry, and then to provide a continuing two-year payment after graduation subsidizing their income as they served these under resourced areas.
Join us Monday, April 25 at 7 p.m. to meet two scholars Rev. Damon Smith and Nelson Sinchi.
