Dora Maclellan Brown Ministry Scholarships

Description

The Dora Maclellan Brown Ministry Scholarships are one of the most unique in the country. In memory of Mrs. Brown, the Dora Maclellan Brown Charitable Trust established the scholarship program in 1972 to glorify God by providing for those He has called to His service. Dora Maclellan Brown Scholarships are available to Christian men and women: from the greater Chattanooga area, who are theologically and biblically conservative, and who are seeking to continue their education in Christian service work at a theological seminary, Bible college, or graduate school. Specifically, the student will be focusing on classes or master's degrees that will prepare the student for vocational Christian service work. This includes Master's of Divinity, Master's of Theology, master's degree in biblical counseling, missions, worship music or other fields for Christian service work.
