CFL HEARTSTEAD BATCH 5 SCHOLARS SYs 2024-2028!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW CFL HEARTSTEAD BATCH 5 SCHOLARS SYs 2024-2028!!!

The CFL Life Ministry-Heartstead Scholarship Program, through its implementing arm CFL Heartstead Scholarship Committee (CHESCo), is happy to announce the newest batch of scholars for the school years 2024-2028. These young individuals have worked hard to achieve this milestone, as we are proud to support their academic journeys. This scholarship goes beyond financial aid. It aims to nurture both the intellectual and spiritual growth of the scholars as they continue their education.

THE SELECTION PROCESS: FINDING THE BEST

The scholarship program began its search for Batch 5 scholars earlier this year, targeting members from the CFL community who come from less privileged backgrounds but have demonstrated a commitment to academic success and community service. Applicants are required to meet a stringent criterion: no final grade below 80% in any subject, and an endorsement from their respective CFL leaders within their clusters or ministries.

From the 21 applicants, the CHESCo Committee carefully reviewed each one, considering not only their academic records but also their commitment to the values of the CFL community. Only 13 candidates were chosen to move forward and take the qualifying written examination, which was held on September 1, 2024. After this test, seven applicants stood out and were invited to participate in virtual interviews on September 27. These interviews further evaluated their character, academic potential, and desire to be part of the CFL Heartstead program.

HOLISTIC DEVELOPMENT: MORE THAN JUST FINANCIAL SUPPORT

The CFL Hearstead Scholarship Program is not just about financial aid. It also focuses on the personal and spiritual development of the scholars. As members of the CFL community, scholars are encouraged to actively participate in community activities, helping to serve others and grow in their faith. The scholarship promotes the belief that ÔÇ£serving the community together is serving GodÔÇÖÔÇØ This means that the scholars, along with their families, are invited to engage in the spiritual life of the community, gaining both academic and spiritual wisdom.
