For the 2017 Pastors’ Conference, one of the most edifying experiences (out of many) was being able to provide scholarships for 50 61 pastors to attend the Conference and Annual Meeting in Phoenix. We’ve had people ask about the possibility since and this year we decided to do something about it.
We’re raising money to help send messengers to Nashville. No strings attached. As long as they meet the criteria for the application, they’ll be eligible and recipients will be chosen randomly from those who apply.
Some details:
Scholarships will be awarded on a random basis for those who meet the following criteria:
— Pastoral staff of a small (under 200) SBC church
— Church is either unable OR unwilling to pay your expenses to attend
— Agrees to use the funds only for Conference & Convention-related expenses
— Agrees to attend all Convention meeting sessionsThe number of scholarships awarded will be based on the amount donated. Each recipient will receive $1,000 toward Send Conference & Convention expenses.
Help us by sharing this GoFundMe page and, if you’re able, by donating to help raise funds. The first $3,000 given will be matched dollar-for-dollar thanks to a matching gift from a generous donor.
Applications will be open later this week. More details to come.
