Lois Carlson Bridges Nursing Scholarship
Lois Carlson Bridges Nursing Scholarship
DR CONGO
Lois Carlson Bridges, a former nurse, is the widow of Dr. Paul Carlson. After Paul’s death, her unwavering dedication continued as she helped establish the Paul Carlson Partnership (PCP) in collaboration with the Covenant Church of Congo (CEUM), ensuring that his mission lived on. Her resilience and faith have inspired countless individuals, and her enduring passion for the people of the Democratic Republic of Congo stands as a powerful testimony to servant leadership.
In recognition of Lois’s tenacious spirit and servant heart, the Paul Carlson Partnership created a nursing scholarship in her name, enabling others to fulfill their calling to serve the Lord and the people of the DRC. This scholarship provides financial support for:
- Two Congolese nursing students each year
- Administrative assistance to the CEUM Director of Nursing
- One U.S. nurse facing financial obstacles, enabling them to travel to the DRC as a PCP Medical Ambassador to train others.
