The Grover Wright Scholarship

The Grover Wright Scholarship Fund was created by the LSTC Gospel Choir in 1989 as their ministry project.

Mr. Grover Wright was associate director of the Division for Professional Leadership, LCA. He was a strong leader in the church, encouraging Asians, African Americans, Hispanics and Native Americans to be pastors and lay leaders in the church. He passed away on February 3, 1997 and is missed by many. In 1989, to praise God and to support people of color in fulfilling their calling to His ministries the LSTC Gospel Choir established the Grover Wright Scholarship Fund.
