We deeply value the relationships we have with churches and non-profit organizations across North America.
Trinity Western University was formed from a vision of the Evangelical Free Churches of America. Throughout our history we have walked alongside Christian churches and communities. We’ve consistently depended on each other for support, prayer and fulfilling the mission of developing godly Christian leaders. As fellow members of the body of Christ we hope to continue building relationships with churches in our area and around the world.
As the COVID-19 situation continues to develop around the world, churches and para-church organizations are finding ways to adapt and continue fulfilling the Great Commission during this time. As an arm of the Church, our desire is to support our broader communities with necessary resources and training to empower them to lead well during this time of crisis. To that end, we have collected a series of links to resources and articles that we have found helpful and trust you will as well. In addition, we have highlighted our academic programs and training that we believe will best serve you and your organization during this season.
