Gordon C. Willis Memorial Scholarship Fund
The Gordon C. Willis Memorial Scholarship Fund (formerly
known as the Eastern Diocese Scholarship Fund) was
prayerfully conceived in 1988 as a means to assist our young
people in their pursuit of academic excellence. A
scholarship committee was appointed and assigned the task of
developing the rules and the scholarship application. Dr.
George Thompson served as the first president of the
scholarship fund.
In July 1993 following the sudden death of Deacon Gordon C.
Willis, it was proposed to the body that the name of the
scholarship fund be changed to the Gordon C. Willis Memorial
Scholarship in recognition of Brother Willis' devotion and
dedication to the work of the Lord.
The scholarship fund had a challenging beginning; however,
the Lord's blessings have allowed us to be consistent in
awarding scholarships

A Letter from the GCWM Scholarship Committee
We seek to support in assisting the
needs of our young people throughout the Diocese in their
collegiate endeavors. We ask that all applicants be aware of

The committee extends a heartfelt thank you for your
participation as we press on towards the mark in the
high-calling of Jesus Christ our Lord. We solicit your
prayers and support that God may continue to bless this
memorial scholarship program.
God Bless,
