The John Whitmer Historical Association is accepting applications for a promising scholarship/grant awards program. Its purpose is to encourage and support scholarly involvement and participation in the JWHA's central mission -- studies of Latter Day Saint religion pertinent especially to the Community of Christ
-- by promising scholars, (particularly students).
- The Wildermuth (scholarly paper competition) Award requires submission of a scholarly product (such as a paper, thesis, or dissertation). Two Wildermuth Awards of $250 each, plus waiver of annual meeting registration fees and a one-year JWHA membership, are available. Winning papers must be presented at the JWHA annual meeting and they will be published in the JWHA Journal pending any necessary revisions.
- The Kelley (travel grant) Award requires a one page letter of application that includes the applicant's name, address, and phone number, as well as a concise statement of (a) interest in Latter day Saint studies and (b) reasons for needing financial assistance. Two Kelley Awards in the amount of $100 each, (may be increased to $200.00 if the need justifies), plus a waiver of the annual meeting registrations fees and a one-year JWHA membership, are available. Winners are required to attend the JWHA annual meeting and assist the Executive Director with registration and other meeting business as needed.
Applications for this promising scholar award program should be sent to:
