The scholarship award program was established by the late Charles and Erma Barton at the time of their death. The scholarship account is held by New Covenant Funds and provides interest money to award scholarships. Since the number of applicants this year was large, additional money was needed and withdrawn from the Memorial Fund as the session decided to reward all applicants—an intentional way to honor young people related to the church.

The worship time included the service of communion and was followed by a luncheon that provided a time for fellowship for families of the honorees and the congregation.
