Church has always played an important role in the
development of youth. Our youth receive biblical
training and see examples for a successful and
fruitful life. With the inception and development
of the Texas Southwest Jurisdiction scholarship
program the church is continuing to play an

achievement as well as spiritual excellence.
The late Bishop T.D. Iglehart the late Mother
Emma F. Crouch the late Mother Dessie Mae
Iglehart and the late Superintendent Thomas
Johnson have left a pattern of hard work and a
