On January 3, 2017, Zhejiang Theological Seminary released a regulation on a fund to encourage further study by pastoral staff, symbolizing the establishment of the fund.
The rule declares details on the fund source, where it can be used and ways for application. It will support on-post pastoral staff who have served the church for more than a decade under 50 for the female and 55 for the male for further education and seminary students to work in rural churches.
Besides, the fund will also provide scholarship and financial aid to undergraduate, year-end bonuses to pastoral staff and award outstanding alumni. Volunteers are needed to be responsible for fundraising and the implementation of the regulation.
