ABOUT THE MINISTRY

Glad Tidings Gospel Ministry consists of a small group of Christians from different backgrounds, who desire to help students further the Gospel message of Jesus Christ. We were founded by people who put their trust and finances into our hands, for the soul purpose of dispersing it to students in need of financial support.

The Glad Tidings scholarship program exists to aid students that are committed to serving in foreign missions, the inner-city, or other ministry vocations. We strive to provide help with the costs of Christian training and education, in order to enable students to become involved in ministry during or shortly after the completion of their education.

Glad Tidings has been granting scholarships since 1981. Recently, we have been blessed to bestow this assistance all over the country, in $500 to $700 increments per semester. Upon receiving applications from students in need, we review the situation and testimony of each candidate, and we prayerfully decide which ones we should sponsor.

God has and continues to work in the lives of our scholarship recipients. Many of those who have benefited from a Glad Tidings scholarship are now serving the Lord in various countries and ministries around the world. Our hope is to continue to aid and bless countless students, so that they in turn, may bless others with the hope of the Gospel.
