You may make mention of your specific involvement in your community of faith and the community at large; however, your essay should not be a mere listing of these involvements.

Mail the completed application (this page, your essay, and the two letters of reference) to:

The application deadline this year is April 14, 2010.

The $200 award will be presented at the Senior Awards Assembly of your school.
