Huldah Academic Legacy Awards
Israelite Nation Worldwide Ministries — Education Division. An annual award recognising Israelites who excel in learning, build up the Israelite family, and carry Israelite identity in conduct as well as in study.
Purpose of the award
To recognise and celebrate Israelites — children, youth or adults — who excel in academic pursuits with diligence and integrity, who actively contribute to the spiritual, educational and cultural strengthening of the Israelite family, and who embody Israelite values in both scholarship and service.
Scriptural foundation
The award also rests on Daniel 1:17, on the knowledge and skill in all learning given to the four children; on Nehemiah 4:6, where the people had a mind to work; and on Psalm 127:3–4, where children are named an heritage of the Lord.
Category one: academic excellence
Nominees must show consistent high performance in formal education, whether at school, in homeschool or in ministry-based learning; mastery in core subjects including literacy, mathematics, science, history and biblical studies; and evidence of intellectual curiosity, discipline and growth.
Documentation required: report cards or transcripts from the past twelve months, a teacher or mentor recommendation, and a personal reflection or testimony appropriate to the nominee's age.
Category two: contribution
Nominees must show active participation in building the Israelite family through teaching, mentoring, organising or serving; leadership or support in Israelite events, festivals or educational programmes; and the upholding of Israelite values in speech, conduct and community life.
Examples: leading or assisting in children's classes or praise segments, creating educational materials or visual aids, supporting family worship, prayer or study sessions, and volunteering in community outreach or festival preparation.
Category three: character and Israelite identity
Nominees must reflect respect for elders, peers and spiritual leadership; humility, diligence and a teachable spirit; and a clear understanding and expression of Israelite identity.
