Nigerian Scholarships Program
May 17-June 8
Our annual Nigerian scholarship program is now in full swing following the Dually Noted concert kickoff Saturday, May 17th.
While you can donate any amount, if you would like to sponsor an individual child, it takes $300 to put a child through school for the year. If you don’t wish to fully sponsor a child, you can go in with others to jointly sponsor. As of Saturday's concert, 9 children will have scholarships! ________________________________
$300 puts a child through school for the year, which includes:
- uniforms
- books
- teacher salaries
- small portion for building maintenance
Everyone who sponsors a child will
- receive a photo of that child
- receive their report cards
- have the opportunity to correspond with your sponsored child if you wish
________________________________
The money raised will go through Africa Education Partnership to be sent directly to Bishop Markus Dogo in the Kafanchan diocese in northern Nigeria.
Between now and June 8 you may donate student scholarships by writing a check to Trinity Parish and noting 'Scholarship Drive' in the memo line.
Thank you for your support!

Our Parish Meeting on May 4 was a time of open, honest discussion regarding the lack of accessibility to our facilities, including the bathrooms. The vestry shared their plan to tackle this complicated problem, which was outlined in a letter sent to the congregation. At the meeting attendees were invited to write their thoughts and, if they chose, to volunteer to help with the ongoing discernment of this huge project.

O good and gracious God, from the beginning you have guided Your People like a Good Shepherd; we ask you to guide our congregation as we explore if and how, as part of your call to mission, You might want us to make our Parish more physically accessible to welcome and serve people in our congregation and in our community. Help us to resist the temptations to either be paralyzed by fear or to race ahead without Your clear guidance. Give us the clarity we need and the courage to follow the guidance you give us through the Spirit of Jesus Christ our Lord. AMEN.
This prayer was written by Bishop Gordon to help us as we consider this most ambitious 2025 Goal.
Please pray for Trinity
