Global Mission
Trinity Tariffville is involved in and supports many global mission activities. Learn more about some of them below.
Trinity began a partnership with the Anglican Diocese in Kaduna in 2002 through our friendship with the then Archishop of the Diocese of Kaduna, Josiah Idowu-Fearon. (Bishop Josiah is now Secretary General of the Anglican Communion).
The Kateri Vision is to provide simple decent medical care for poor Nigerians, both in rural and urban settings, who otherwise have no access to medical care. This organization currently works with the Anglican Diocese of Kaduna, Gusau and Kafanchan to build and run clinics. They also work in partnership with FaithCare, a faith-based non-profit based in Hartford, Connecticut, to conduct intensive medical missions every summer.
Since 2003, the organization has helped more than 200,000 people with medical care, with many at Trinity participating in raising and donating funds and traveling to Nigeria every summer to staff the clinics. Learn more here. Follow them on Facebook here.

Trinity supports African Education Partnership , a nonprofit organization that has been building and renovating schools in several dioceses in Nigeria since 2009. In addition to construction, AEP provides boreholes that supply both the schools and surrounding community with clean water. Toilets for students and staff, for better health and hygiene, are another integral component. Security walls, educational supplies, and maintenance of the facilities are also provided through funds raised by AEP. When possible, board members travel to visit the numerous school sites and meet with teachers, students, and community members. In total, AEP has left its mark on 7 different school sites.
Another initiative started in 2023 is the Education Fund. For only $300, a child can be educated for an entire year!
This organization's vision is to prepare and equip a future generation of leaders in Nigeria by ensuring that education will be accessible to all and free of the gender, ethnic, and religious tensions that plague society. When students of different backgrounds learn together, it helps foster understanding, acceptance, and compassion.
Trinity Church members Bob and Elaine Chagnon both serve on the AEP board.
