Kearney (January 21, 2025) – The first annual Visitation Banquet hosted by UNK Students for Life was an evening of pro-life fellowship inspired by the humanity of Jesus and John the Baptist in their mothers’ wombs as portrayed in Luke’s Gospel. $6,000 was raised for a new and ongoing scholarship fund for pregnant women attending the University of Nebraska Kearney with the goal to support students in choosing life while continuing to pursue their education. The evening featured testimonies from college students involved with Students for Life who shared their experiences of encountering their peers in pro-life dialogue, attending events like the March for Life, praying outside abortion facilities, and more. The Visitation Scholarship will be advertised beginning in the Spring semester with a scholarship board to evaluate and pray about the applications and distribution of funds.
