As well, there is an amount assessed by the synodical treaserer for the operations of the seminary, as well as for student aid.
And in addition, we have a scholarship fund, for which aspiring ministers and teachers can apply. |
I am going to see to it that my church "adopts" a seminary student once I get a church. It is pathetic how many churches do not support their students.
