A
tree is a remarkable creation. As it grows and
matures, it provides protection from the elements; as it moves
through the cycles of the year it provides blessings to the eyes
of those beholding it. It also produces seeds from which other
trees will grow. These trees will also provide other blessings
and seeds. The cycle continues to repeat itself.
The
Women's Auxiliary of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary
is similar. The prayers and willing support of the members provide
immediate benefit for this Gateway Opened by Providence and
Prayer. The scholarships provided to student wives are the
seeds planted to aid the proclamation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
around the world.
Who?
The
Women's Auxiliary has regular, donor, and life memberships. You
may also choose to provide a full or partial scholarship. All
women are cordially invited to become members and to secure members
among their friends.
Women
become members of the Auxiliary because of their interests in
theological education. They represent many areas of life but have
a common goal of sharing the Christian message.
What?
Members
of the Auxiliary covenant to pray for the seminary, its student
body, and faculty. Program information provided makes these members
some of the nation's best informed laypersons of spiritual leadership
training.
Scholarships
for student wives are financed by membership dues and special
gifts. Scholarships are given to student wives who need assistance
in obtaining a theological education. Through this organization,
women have a vital part in educating spiritual leaders who will
teach around the world in their witness for Christ.
