MTM Scholarships

Whether you are a student feeling the desire to prepare for ministry by attending a UPCI affiliated College or University, or an individual feeling the burden to further pursue a missions endeavor, we are here to help. Many people face the challenges of raising finances for their tuition or missions trips. Fortunately, MTM has given over 1 million dollars to provide scholarships to qualified people seeking to be trained for service in the Kingdom of God. UPCI Youth Ministries is grateful for the opportunity to partner with these worthy recipients.
