Eleanor Shirley Scholarship.png

Financial assistance for Graceful Gifts is available through the Eleanor Shirley Brechbill scholarship. “...and to think the first thing she saw when her little eyes opened was the face of Jesus.”

Seth and Emily Brechbill did not know the sex of the little baby that danced and flipped in the womb practically nonstop. But with five sons already, they were not anticipating a girl on August 14, 2018, when Eleanor Shirley Brechbill arrived, and they named her in honor of her grandmother and great grandmother. Despite the heartbreak of meeting their daughter for the first time only to say goodbye, the Brechbills know God is good – all the time – and He has been with them providing comfort through this time of sorrow and loss. They have faith that they will see Eleanor again in heaven, and they know that she is dancing with Jesus at this moment. As a reminder of God’s goodness, the Brechbills created this scholarship at Graceful Gifts so Eleanor’s special name and legacy will live on as a blessing to another little dancer.
