First Lutheran Church Scholarship Program

About the Program:

The First Lutheran Scholarship Program includes multiple scholarships offered through First Lutheran Church. Applicants will be considered for all scholarships offered, however an individual can only receive one scholarship. Scholarships are one-time, non-renewable awards. Currently the following scholarships are available.

The scholarship program is open to all members of First Lutheran Church, Le Sueur who will be attending a two- or four-year college or university, a vocational-technical trade school or an accredited seminary program during the upcoming academic year.

Currently the following scholarships are available:

  • First Lutheran Church Scholarships are established through donations from the congregation. This congregation believes in the importance of education and we want to show our love and support to our graduates. We are members of one family in Christ, working together and sharing in each other’s lives. The number and amount of individual scholarships will be determined by the amount of funds available each year.
  • The Donna Johnson Memorial Scholarship was created by the Johnson family in memory of their mom/grandmother. Donna sought to make a difference in the lives of others through volunteering, leadership, and kind acts toward others. Scholarships of at least $5,000 will be awarded each year.
  • The Marcie Allen Scholarship was created by the Allen family in memory of Marcie. Scholarships of at least $5,000 will be awarded each year.
  • Seminary Scholarships are available to members who will be attending seminary school. Previous recipients of any First Lutheran Scholarship can apply for seminary scholarship support.

Applications will be reviewed and recipients selected by the First Lutheran Church Scholarship Committee.
