What we have done in Ethiopia

Trinity decided to adopt the Suri and Baale people of Ethiopia in October of 2002.
Since then, we have sent 24 people to Ethiopia to serve and to learn.
Approximately 100 people have committed to pray for the Suri people and our work in Ethiopia. They receive monthly updates for prayer.
A member of Trinity constructed a beautiful display case for the Fellowship Hall and we put up new displays 6 times a year,
VBS offering (over $1200) ? food for the Suri children
