Disciples Women of Virginia have supported female seminarians in our region for the last three decades. If you are an active member of a disciple congregation in the Region of Virginia and are currently attending an accredited seminary, you may be eligible for financial assistance.
Basic requirements for Seminarians:
1. Have a demonstrated need.
2. You are presently under the care of the Christian Church with Virginia’s Committee for either Commission or Ordination.
3. You are presently enrolled in an accredited seminary.
Additionally, beginning in 2024, scholarships are now available for continuing education for active female clergy in the Virginia Region pursuing advanced theological education. At the time of submission, applicants must be currently enrolled in the class or classes for which the scholarship is requested. All clergy must have standing with the Region of Virginia.
