TEDS/EFCA District Church Planting Scholarship Program

The EFCA District Church Planting Scholarship Program provides each District Superintendent within the EFCA with a minimum of one prospective Church Planting Scholarship Program nomination per year. In order to qualify, program applicants must meet all admissions requirements to the TEDS MDiv degree program and be nominated by their district prior to matriculation. Scholarship recipients will be awarded a $5,000 annual Church Planting Grant (based upon full-time attendance). Additionally, program participants will be eligible to combine this award with the existing EFCA Church Match Grant program of $2,000, where a contribution of up to $2,000 from an EFCA church will be matched by the same amount from TEDS. For these new students, the $5,000 scholarship, combined with $2,000 from an EFCA church and an additional $2,000 matched by TEDS means a $9,000 scholarship.

Trinity is excited to partner with the EFCA in fulfilling its mission of Multiplying Healthy Churches Among All People, particularly by making the training of Church Planters a priority.
