The Ewart Endowment Fund has received no applications for grants in 2015 and the deadline has been extended to Sept. 30, the subcommittee reported in March.
The fund provides yearly grants for events and programs that provide Christian education opportunities or support.
In 2014, it provided a total of $187,000 to six new projects and five previously approved multi-year projects. These included summer programs, national events, support for recent seminary graduates and lay education programs. About $47,000 is available for new projects this year.
“Sometimes people are very inventive, get good ideas going,” said Brent Ellis, who was convener of the subcommittee responsible for the fund.
