Shelby Kennedy was a bright shining light in the Church of Jesus Christ and a favorite daughter of the San Antonio community. Her effervescent spirit, overflowing love of Christ, passion for the Word of God and honor to her mother and father was a model of biblical womanhood. For several years she was a member of the congregation of which I am part, and those who loved her dearly miss her. Shelby is now with the Lord Jesus in Heaven, but her legacy lives on through a new organization dedicated to promoting Bible literacy in America.

The Shelby Kennedy Foundation will sponsor a National Bible Bee for children 7-18, and is seeking an Executive Director to oversee the ‘Bible Bee.’ The Shelby Kennedy Foundation partners with Patrick Henry College and other organizations to expand youths’ knowledge of the Holy Bible through Scripture memorization.
