First Annual Young
Gentleman’s Scholarship Beautillion
JBB Circle of
L.Y.F.E. of First African Bap
tist Church of East Savan
nah invites you to be a part
of their First Annual Young
Gentleman’s Scholarship
Beautillion. Too often, young
men are either overlooked in
or absent from the church and
this event will allow the op
portunity to recognize those
young men who are present
and active in their church and
other various ministries.
Christ modeled the
true marks of manhood to
be emulated and aspired by
every man. Therefore, we
aspire to make young men
aware that they are to be
representations of Christ in
their homes, neighborhoods,
schools, and jobs or wher
ever life may take them.
The objective is to
promote professional de
velopment, higher learning,
family values, and spiritual
empowerment as the key ar
eas that define the substance
of a young man.
We are asking that
your church ministry nomi
nate one young man of great
character to represent your
church family in this year’s
Beautillion. He should be
an active member of your
ministry who comes recom
mended by your pastor and/
or youth advisor. In addition,
he should be a high school
junior or senior during the
2012 - 2013 school years.
We invite all of you
to participate in our Beau
tillion and request that all
nominations are received
no later than November 30,
2012. If you have any ques
tions or would like a nomina
tion form please feel free to
contact Deacon Tony Foy at
(912) 220-5079.
