The Board of Deacons recently announced Nicole Mathewson as the recipient of the 2021 First Presbyterian Church of Chili Scholarship. “It has been a true pleasure to watch Nicole grow in her faith as part of our church family for many years. We are so proud of her accomplishments at our church and at the Churchville-Chili Central School and we are pleased to honor her with this recognition. Nicole is a caring, conscientious, hard-working young girl, with a bright future ahead of her.”
Nicole is the daughter of Jay and Kathy Mathewson. She is graduating from Churchville-Chili Central School this June. In the fall, Nicole will attend SUNY Geneseo, where she will major in biology.
After volunteering at her church, her school, and scouts, doing such things as helping with the Fall Supper and Chicken Barbecue, as well as attending two mission trips to Colorado and Montana, Nicole knew she wanted to make a positive and lasting impact on the community, either through helping other people or the planet. Nicole has many interests that may impact her future career choice, including physical therapy, clinical psychology, and addressing environmental issues. “We know she will do well in whatever direction she chooses and that God will be with her every step of the way.”
