Jacob and Kathryn S. Hekman Scholarship

Together they have served congregations and Christian institutions for over 50 years. They are eager to encourage young people to experience the joy of Christian service that they have realized over their lifetime. It is their desire to assist a pre-seminary student in achieving this goal of service in Christian ministry, preferably within the Christian Reformed Church.

• pursuing a pre-seminary course of study and planning to attend Calvin Theological Seminary
• demonstrate excellent Christian character and willingness to follow a life of service to God
