The Elise Holladay Scholarship, funded by Episcopal Church Women, awarded $9,885 in grants, ranging from $500 to $1000, to 14 young men and women throughout the Diocese last spring. Also, the ECW Beverley D. Tucker Scholarship is available and provides assistance to men and women in church-related training in an accredited Episcopal school. Use the same form, available on the diocesan website here, to apply for either scholarship. Only complete applications will be considered and must be postmarked by April 27 for the student's application to be considered for the fall semester. A student may receive funds twice. If you have questions, call Susan Broaddus at 757-623-0205.
ECW Annual Spring Meeting
The
ECW Annual Spring will be at Redeemer Episcopal Church in Midlothian
Virginia on May 21. In keeping with our theme "God Bless the Children"
the Boys Home of Virginia will be featured. Ms. Megan Drew-Tiller,
Church Relations, Boys Home of Virginia will be our guest speaker and
presenter. Come and join us. All are welcome.
2016 ECW Yearbook & Parish Directory
At
the ECW Spring Board Meeting, the diocesan ECW Board voted to have the
2016 Yearbook and Parish Directory distributed electronically only. This
is a big money savings for the ECW. It also offers us the advantage of
updating contact information as it changes. In order to preserve
privacy, the yearbook will not be posted online, but information on how
your ECW members may obtain copies is available on the diocesan website -
www.diosova.org/ecw.
Since there may be some women who do not use a computer, I hope you
will work with all the women in your church to make sure they have
access to a copy of the yearbook.
Thank you,
Nancy Polick Sands, ECW President
