  • Consist of no more than 250 members
  • Be at least 50 years old
  • Have a need for training to write a history and organize its records and/or organize an anniversary celebration that involves writing a history and mounting exhibits.
To be considered for the scholarship, submit an essay along with the Seminar Registration form. (There is no separate application form for the scholarship.) The essay should describe the congregation's need to preserve its records and any upcoming events related to preserving or celebrating the congregation's heritage.

A copy of the congregation's most recent annual budget and description of the church's financial need must also be submitted.
