Myrtle Marino Endowed Scholarship

For students of Baylor University
Due April 30

The Myrtle Marino Endowed Scholarship Fund was established in 2010 with a donation of funds from the estate of Myrtle Nall Marino. The scholarship is gifted yearly to worthy students from the church who have been accepted for admission at, or are already attending, Baylor University in Waco, or another Baylor University campus. For school year 2025-2026, applications must be submitted on or before April 30, 2025, for evaluation by the Scholarship Committee.

Messiah in the Passover

Demonstration
Fellowship Hall
All Ages
April 5
5-6:15pm
Free

Gather your family and come experience Messiah in the Passover as presented by Mitch Forman of Chosen People Ministries. The marvelous thing about the Passover is that it not only commemorates a milestone of the past but also connects us to a glorious future. Believers will be affirmed knowing they worship a God who keeps His promises and remains ever faithful. The Passover is a picture of God’s love and salvation. It is a story of forgiveness, deliverance, hope, and reconciliation. The redemption of Israel from Egyptian slavery points us towards an even greater story of deliverance through the promised Messiah of Israel. Childcare registration is linked in the registration description.
