Opportunity
Endowment
Fund

The Opportunity Endowment Fund supports initiatives and organizations that provide emotional and spiritual support. The Fund was created by Christ the Servant member Richard Petroff with an intent to provide financial assistance to help the underserved, the disadvantaged, and others struggling with life’s circumstances. The Opportunity Endowment Fund committee always welcomes applications for grants. Examples of grants awarded include: 
  • West Houston Assistance Ministries for continuing education materials
  • Karatu Lutheran Hospital in Tanzania for hospital supplies and a PA system
  • New Creation Lutheran Church in Fulshear for a permanent church sign for their new church
  • Acts Of Wisdom for books and school supplies for one grade level of an elementary school in rural Ethiopia

To submit a grant request, please read the attached Guidelines, then complete and submit a Grant Application Form. Completed forms can be submitted via email to the church office. Completed forms may also be dropped off with Betsy Riggs in the main office. The Opportunity Endowment Fund committee evaluates applications bi-monthly. Accepted grantees will also be asked to sign an agreement and complete an evaluation at the conclusion of the grant period.

Please contact any member of the Opportunity Endowment Fund Committee for more information:
​Pastor Jim, DJ Blockhus, Marsha Bower, Susan Collins, Curt Goedecke, and Adam Jones.

The Opportunity Endowment Fund continues to be generously supported by members of Christ the Servant. Contributions to the Fund are always welcome!
