Scholarship Opportunities for Virginia Pastors

The Virginia Missions Board is excited to offer the following scholarship opportunities for pastors in Virginia interested in participating in mission trips. The total cost for each trip is $2,100.00 per participant.

1. For First-Time Mission Trip Participants: Lead/Senior Pastors who have not previously participated in a mission trip will have approximately $750 in out-of-pocket expenses for travel, lodging, and meals. Please note that each participant will be responsible for personal spending money not covered by the trip costs.

2. For Previous Mission Trip Participants: Lead/Senior Pastors who have taken part in a mission trip will incur approximately $1,050 in out-of-pocket expenses for travel, lodging, and meals. Please note that each participant will be responsible for personal spending money not covered by the trip costs.

Our goal is for each selected participant to engage their local church in supporting the remaining costs of the trip, fostering a connection to the mission field. If selected, the trip leader will reach out to you to discuss trip details and the associated costs. Please be prepared to commit to covering the non-scholarshipped funds needed to secure your spot. If you are unable to do so, your space may be offered to another applicant.

THERE ARE 3 FIRST-TIME LEAD / SENIOR PASTOR SLOTS AVAILABLE FOR EACH TRIP. WE MUST HAVE YOUR APPLICATION AND COMMITMENT INTO THE STATE OFFICE FOR THE MISSION TRIP BY NOVEMBER 15, 2024. IN THE EVENT THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO FILL THE 3 SLOTS, THEY WILL OPEN TO THE NEXT SELECTED LEAD / SENIOR PASTOR WHOSE APPLICATION WAS RECEIVED BY THE DEADLINE. YOU MAY SUBMIT THESE AT THE VIRGINIA STATE MINISTERS MEETING.
