Rhoda and Bob Peters Memorial Scholarship
The District Executive Committee (DEXCOM) of Canadian Midwest District is pleased to offer the Rhoda and Bob Peters Memorial Scholarship, two $500 scholarships for Bible quizzers graduating from grade 12 who will be attending Bible School in the fall immediately after their final quizzing year. Competitive success in quizzing is not part of the selection process for the Rhoda and Bob Peters Memorial Scholarship.
Recognizing that Grade 12 quizzers are key role models for younger students, the following selection criteria will be considered for the Rhoda and Bob Peters Memorial scholarships: has quizzed for a total of three years, will be enrolled at a recognized Bible School the following fall for a minimum one-year program, and has exemplified Christ-like character and leadership as a quizzer (based on coach’s character reference). Special consideration will be given to those who are considering entering vocational ministry.
