Memorial Fund - Mari Ellen Reeser
Mari Ellen Reeser was a long term BFA staff member who served the Lord and the students in many roles: dorm mom, teacher, counselor, hiking guide, cheerleader, ... While upbeat and positive, she was able to see and meet the students' needs-their emotional needs in particular. Mari Ellen laughed often and loudly, pulling all around her into her joy. She also had a particular burden for reaching the local German people for Christ. Mari Ellen passed away suddenly in April 2012, but the impact she had on the young people at BFA lives on all around the world. This scholarship benefits BFA students and families in financial need.
