To monitor that the "campership" is used as intended, funds are not given directly to the camper but applied to their camp costs upon arrival. 3 Educational assistance - Funds are deposited into bank accounts that will not be available to eligible individuals until after high school graduation. Regular statements from the funded financial institution are maintained. These funds can be used for any expenses incurred for going to a post-secondary institution or for vocational training. 4 Pastoral assistance - As part of our mission to serve churches in training and equipping future pastors, we will provide funds to help with tuition, resources, salary, housing etc. A church must agree with the mission, doctrinal and philosophical values, of the Path to the Pastorate program set up by Fundamental Christian Endeavors Inc for this assistance. Tuition will be paid directly to the training institution and resources will be purchased directly and given to individual in need.
