BLUFFTON, Ohio — Bluffton College has been selected to receive a $2 million grant to help students explore the religious dimensions of all vocations and encourage them to consider church-related careers.

The small Mennonite college was one of 39 schools across the country to be awarded a grant from the Lilly Endowment of Indianapolis. The endowment is a private foundation that since 1937 has supported the causes of religion, community development, and education.
