ASA Distinguished Service Awards
Austin Seminary Association Awards are presented each year to graduates who have distinguished themselves through service to the church. The Award was established by the Board of Trustees and the ASA Board in 1975 and has been presented annually since then to recipients chosen by the Austin Seminary Association Board.
The awardees are selected at the fall meeting of the ASA Board, and each recipient receives a tribute and plaque at the annual ASA Banquet at the conclusion of MidWinter Lectures.
