2021 Scholarship Chapel
Ninety students gathered in Alumni Hall for the 2021 Scholarship Chapel on April 29 to receive privately funded scholarships. They were joined by Dr. Marriot and Dr. Davis, department heads, staff members, and several donors.
Ninety-three scholarships totaling $140,850 were awarded to students in each of the seven departments. These scholarships have been established by individuals and families in memory of others or as a reminder of God’s blessing in their lives and their desire to use those benefits to support others.
Naomi Gauger, a Missions major, was awarded $3,000 through the Elbert M. Dean Memorial Scholarship. Gauger is working to plan a mission trip in the summer of 2022 to the Dominican Republic.
“[The scholarship] will help a lot. Now, money that would have been devoted to my school bill will be put towards the mission trip,” Gauger shared. “I wasn’t expecting [this amount] and it was a nice surprise.”
From the Elmer F. Brown, Jr. Memorial Music Scholarship, two $5,000 scholarships were awarded; one to Lydia Bachorik and one to Joel Montgomery.
Bachorik applied for the scholarship, but she doubted she would get it. “I was not expecting this specific scholarship and it’s a lot more than I was anticipating,” Bachorik shared.
Mrs. Helena Brown, Elmer Brown’s widow, shared, “It’s God’s money … being put to good use.”
