The Fellowship of St John (UK) Trust Association is an Anglican Christian funder that supports ministry, formation, and church life in ways that directly advance parish mission and the needs of God’s people. Its grants tend to favor clergy, seminarians, lay ministers, children’s Christian education, and practical support for churches, with a clear emphasis on modest, mission-aligned awards rather than broad institutional funding. A distinctive feature is its mix of small grant programs and a few targeted scholarships, often tied to specific Anglican contexts or trustee approval.
Mostly quarterly trustee-reviewed grants, with modest award sizes in many programs and at least one invite-only scholarship; funding is targeted, mission-specific, and often limited by annual budget availability. Some awards support study, placements, or short-term service, while others underwrite tuition or church refurbishment.
Check each program carefully for eligibility and timing: most applications are considered at quarterly trustee meetings, and funds are limited, so apply early and align requests tightly with FSJ’s Anglican mission. Expect modest grants for study/service programs, and note that some opportunities, such as the Fr Benson Scholarship, are invite-only or nominated rather than open application.
