2026 Margaret Pech Scholarship recipient announced

Dr Tania Nelson has been chosen as the recipient of this year’s Margaret Pech Scholarship.

The scholarship was established by the late Pastor Herman Pech and his wife, Elizabeth in memory of their daughter Margaret, to support a woman studying theology at Australian Lutheran College.

The scholarship was established a number of years after Margaret's death and since 1995, thirty-one women, including Tania, have been the grateful recipients of the Pech’s generosity.

Tania is in her final year of a Master of Theological Studies degree and is completing her studies while serving the Mawson Lakes Community Church.
