In 2005, I started attending a Covenant Church. I volunteered with youth and loved it. Ministry was beckoning me and I aspired to go to seminary. The Presidential Scholarship opened the door for me to pursue a desire to serve God’s people, and for that I am eternally grateful.

I am so thankful for the opportunity to continue my theological studies through North Park Theological Seminary. I’m also thankful for the gift of the Presidential Scholarship. Without the Presidential Scholarship and those who support it, I would not be able to attend seminary at this point in my life and have no school debt.

The Presidential Scholarship program at North Park Theological Seminary creates an atmosphere that fosters study and spiritual growth by reducing the financial burden of graduate education. It allows me to focus on learning and see how my sense of vocational call relates to God’s Mission for the whole world.

The Presidential Scholarship program has made it possible for me to attend seminary! It has been an irreplaceable gift and investment in my education. God has used my time in seminary to teach, form, and affirm my pastoral call. I am excited to see where He will lead in the next season of life, especially knowing how mightily He has provided during my time at North Park Theological Seminary.

As I approach the final stretch of my seminary experience, I am so grateful to those who have donated both their time and finances towards educating the future generation of Covenant pastors. I will leave here humbled and prepared to change the world in significance and service.
