Christian Ministry Scholarship Fund

A Proud Past

In 1992, NGU celebrated one century of equipping students to share the ministry of Jesus Christ. Over the past 100 years, NGU has celebrated with hundreds of men and woman who have answered God's call and entered into service in His ministry. Many of these individuals have distinguished themselves in key positions at all levels of denominational life. Others have followed God's leading to service outside of the United States. No matter their area of service, these servants chose North Greenville University as the place to prepare their hearts and minds for the ministry that God had planned for their lives. 

A Strong Present

Now in its second century of service, North Greenville University has approximately 300 students studying to serve God through full-time Christian ministry.  Students who graduate from NGU through our ministry programs are prepared to serve God as pastors, missionaries, Christian educators, counselors and many more significant roles in the life and work of Christ's church. Many of these students prepare for their future ministries by spending their summers serving as missionaries or in a local church. 

In fact, for over a decade NGU has led the nation's colleges and universities in the number of summer missionaries commissioned through the North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. Still other students are studying for the ministry while serving in ministerial positions. God is moving on the campus of North Greenville University as our strong ministry prepares students to be the messengers through which Christ Makes the Difference.

A Tremendous Opportunity

While North Greenville University is less expensive than most other private colleges or universities, many students are still left trying to meet the challenge of paying their tuition. Many ministerial students are married and have families and find it difficult to resign their jobs and still provide for their families while seeking their four-year degree. 

Since most ministry students go to seminary after graduation from NGU, the challenges of manking ends meet do not end at the completion of their degree. These students need encouragement, as well as support, in order to answer the call that God has planned for their lives. 

The mission of the Christian Ministry Scholarship Fund is to ensure that no student studying for God's ministry is denied an education due to lack of funding. The Bible says "to whom much is given, much is required." We, whose lives, careers and ministries have been blessed by God, can share in giving our resources to provide scholarship money for students who will fill the gaps in reaching our world for Christ. In answer to the Great Commission, this scholarship is making it possible for students to go "into all the world" and share the love of Christ.
