The National Institute, the youth ministry major at Grace College, Winona Lake, Ind., overseen by CE National, is pleased to announce that this year’s Outstanding Student in Youth Ministry Award goes to Aaron Christenberry.
Christenberry, from Warsaw, Ind., finished his studies in December but will walk in graduation ceremonies this May. He was a member of the Grace baseball team until concussions sidelined him, presenting challenges to everyday life. Since his recovery, he has been a strong student, taken on the role of youth director at Warsaw Wesleyan Church, and he has been accepted to a long-term internship with 12 Stone Church in Georgia.
