The scholarship committee for 2025 was pleased to present the $500 Olga Brands Memorial Scholarship to Violet Marino Cappello as she graduates from Phillipsburg High School. Violet has been a faithful member of Pilgrim, beginning as a child attending Sunday School and Youth Choir. She has shared her amazing talents with us on many occasions.
Our prayers will go with her as she continues her studies at DeSales University, Pennsylvania, majoring in dance.
