The Office of Mission Program Grants of the General Assembly Council has advised the Rev. David Yi, Pastor of the Top Stone Presbtyerian Church (Eastern Korean Presbytery) that the congregation has been selected as a 2009 recipient of the Sam & Helen R. Walton Award for New Church Development. The Walton fund was established by the late Walmart CEO Sam and his wife Helen to encourage the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in its commitment to new church development. The Waltons' intent was to support new church development with a preference that the award is spent for site purchase, hoping that defraying initial capital costs would relieve some of the financial burden from a newly forming congregation.
The monetary aspect of the award is a contribution of $50,000. The church's Session, the case of Top Stone, which is an organized congregation, will report the award's use, related to evangelism and church development, to the Mission Program Grants office; information about the grant and the congregation will be shared with the public media as well.

In his address to those gathered at the President’s Dinner, Dr. Levao identified some of the outstanding achievements image:
President Richard Levao
Bloomfield College has experienced during 2009: Through a total of $50,000 from general mission contributions augmented by Partnership Group representing New Jersey presbyteries, the Synod of the Northeast contributes to the spiritual leadership and nurture on campus through its chaplaincy program. The Rev. Todd Shumpert is in his eighth year of service as Chaplain; Dr. Richard Levao has served as President since 2004, and h150as been recently elected to the Board of Directors of the Association of Presbyterian Colleges and Universities (APCU).
The Rev. Todd Shumpert
Each college strives to accomplish its mission through a combination of academic and extra-curricular programs. While each school has its own distinct mission, there are some common themes:
- Educating students intellectually, physically, socially and spiritually
- Educating for depth and breadth — helping students to master a particular field of knowledge while understanding the wholeness of knowledge as a search for truth
- Developing ethical and moral standards, spiritual values, social responsibility and respect for others
- Preparing students for a world that is rapidly changing, global, diverse (multi-cultural) and technological
- Equipping students with analytical, communication and leadership skills
- Providing opportunities for interaction with faculty and for independent study
- Providing opportunities for volunteer service, internships and study abroad
- Helping students to appreciate aesthetic qualities and realize their creative potential
- Preparing students to lead honorable, purposeful and successful live
Presbyterian colleges are independent, non-sectarian institutions with historic ties to one or more branches of the Presbyterian Church. Some place particularly strong emphasis on Judeo-Christian beliefs and Reformed traditions. All welcome students of all ages, faiths and cultural backgrounds.
President Levao's address to be posted soon.
