Advanced thanks to this blog, it’s really a big help for us who want to take seminary education. It’s easy for us now to choose which institution we would ask for funding help on our education needs. But there’s one thing I would like to ask, are non-chinese seminarians qualified to these scholarship fund?

I am a pastor, married and father of four children. I have been serving in the parish, teaching at the Semianry, holding a Master of Dvinity. To be effective instructor would be happy to complete my Graduate degree in theology. To meet my wishes I am to get a fund to come over to America to finish my studies, if God willing.
