We are honored to announce the scholarship awardees for the 2021-2022 academic year! However, before I tell you about these deserving students, I have to thank the volunteers who donated their time and talent as Application Review Committee members. We have an incredibly talented group of individuals including Trinity Lutheran College alum, higher education experts, and a panel of Pastors from around the globe to review our pool of seminary applicants. Additionally, I want to recognize The Deaconess Community of the ELCA that awarded us with a significant grant, providing us the opportunity to add a sixth Trinity Scholars Program award this year. As we head into the fall season of our third official year as Trinity Education Foundation, we are humbled by the support of our volunteers, the schools we work with, our financial supporters, and the students we serve.
