Awards

Frederick L. Fagley Award

Established in 1965, this Society's Frederick L. Fagley Awards are given each year to anniversary churches which, in the opinion of the awards committee, create superior programs, printed historical materials, and/or anniversary projects. Qualifying churches are divided into two categories, for large and small churches.
