C. Fred Jenkins Award

The Association of Stated Clerks receives the nominations for the C. Fred Jenkins Constitutional Services Award. This is an award of the ASC through which we honor the distinguished services of C. Fred Jenkins.

Awarded in memory of C. Fred Jenkins to an individual or group that has given wise, prudent, and vigilant support to the Constitution and polity of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).

C. Fred Jenkins served his Lord as Associate Stated Clerk from 1990 until his death in 2000. During his tenure, Fred was available always to those who sought his counsel and wisdom, and demonstrated in his responses, in wonderful ways, a love of the church and a grace in the face of our frailties. In his memory and in an attempt to preserve and nurture the values for which he stood, the Association has established this award.

The award will be presented at our gathering at General Assembly.  A permanent award is also placed in the Stated Clerks Library in the Office of the General Assembly in Louisville.
