 Greetings to all of you.
We are so happy to be hosting the 2012 Annual Gathering at Chapman University. We want you to feel like this is YOUR campus, your home.
In 2010 Chapman became a United Church of Christ college and we are proud of the ministry we are able to offer students from UCC congregations from the across the country. Currently there are 29 UCC students from as far divergent places as New Hampshire and Hawaii.
Our campus of just over 6,500 students is a liberal arts and pre-professional school of high caliber. Founded by the Disciples, the school gives enormous support to shepherding UCC and Disciples students in the following ways:
- UCC and Disciples preacher’s kids and grandkids who show some financial need receive half tuition
- UCC Conference youth leaders receive half tuition if their family shows some financial need
- Every UCC and Disciples student who participates in the DOC student ministry receives a $2,000 annual scholarship
- We have three full time staff to do leadership training, offer pastoral support and help students run this vibrant ministry.
Please join me in helping spread the word about Chapman in your congregation and family.
I hope that our time together will be filled with joy and blessing.
Peace,
Rev. Nancy E. Brink
Director of Church Relations
