Austin Seminary Award

We are so proud of the Boyds who are finishing their last semester at Austin Seminary.  Four students won the Fellowship Award, but this is the first time a married couple were two of the four. Congratulations to David and Jill (who won the top award)!  Here is a note from Jill explaining the award:

Yesterday [Feb. 5, 2014], the annual ASA banquet was held at the seminary, and four students were awarded fellowships in recognition of their Christian character, scholarship, abilities, and potential/readiness for ministry. David and I, along with our classmates Layton E. Williams and Charlie Shin were the four recipients. From what I was told by a faculty member, the decision was especially difficult this year because we are part of a class that is especially gifted and amazing, and we have many other classmates who meet the criteria for the fellowships that were awarded. It is a tremendous honor to be a part of this amazing journey with each and every one of them, and I am humbled beyond belief by such recognition. Thank you all for your interest, well wishes, and support. None of the class of 2014 would be where we are without your love, prayers, encouragement, and faith in our abilities and calls.
