“Graduating Courageous Ambassadors for Christ Who Make an Eternal Impact Wherever They Go”

Each year the Grace Christian University Alumni Association honors alumni with two types of awards – Young Alumni of the Year (under 30 years of age) and Alumni of the Year. Fellow alumni can nominate alums for their work and leadership in their community, their service to the Lord through their ministry, and other ways that they exemplify the mission of Grace Christian University as individuals who are courageous ambassadors for Christ making an eternal impact wherever they go. These awards are given out at our annual Gala event.

If you would like to nominate a deserving Grace alumnus for either Young Alumni or Alumni of the Year, please fill out the form below. One nominee per submission please. All nominations are submitted to and selected by the Alumni Association Awards Selection Committee.

We hope that you participate in nominating an alumnus and join us to celebrate them at our annual Gala event.

Every story is a reflection of God’s work in our lives. When you share how Grace has impacted your journey, you encourage others to see what’s possible. We’d love to hear your story. Share what Grace meant to you, how it shaped you, and where God has led you since.

Alumni stories can be found in the annual publication of The Journey Magazine, on our website, on our social media pages and in our monthly newsletter.
