Selah Eni Scholarship

HEARTFIRE is committed to providing opportunities for those who respond to the call of “Lord, send me” by stepping into the mission field. We know that financial challenges can sometimes be a hurdle for those eager to share the Gospel with a hurting world.

The Selah Eni (Hebrew for “Send me”) Scholarship was created to remove this barrier, specifically for those who feel called to spread the message of Jesus Christ. Believing that Jesus’ command to “go and make disciples of all nations” is a mandate, not just a suggestion, we ask scholarship recipients to disciple others during their journey and to “pay it forward” by supporting future mission participants with their fundraising needs.
