DALESKE SCHOLARSHIP

Ernest and Bernadine Daleske were faithful members of St. Paul Lutheran church who possessed strong faith in Jesus as their Savior. Throughout their lives they lived modestly contributing time, talents and funds to St. Paul. Unable to have children of their own, they encouraged, taught, and mentored young people whenever they were given the opportunity. During their time on Earth, God faithfully provided for all their needs. Trusting in God, Ernst and Bernadine saved throughout their lives with a goal to establish a scholarship fund for the children in their church family. May God bless you as you continue your education and grow in your faith.
