MISSION
Trinity Biblical Institute
TBI trains pastors in English speaking East and Central Africa through an accredited Bible College serving poor rural communities in Uganda. Emanating from a main campus in Uganda, teaching occurs at other locations in Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, and Burundi. A new campus in Rwanda is being completed now. The church in Africa is growing very rapidly, having over 600 million members. However, there is a theological famine wherein there is only one pastor for every 450,000 Christians in Africa (as compared to one for every 600 in America).

TBI is the main work of Trinity Center for World Mission, TCWM, which planted dozens of churches along with schools and an orphanage, but now focuses on training pastors.
We create seminaries
Which create pastors
Which create churches
Which create disciples
Our students need scholarships which provide the majority of their expenses, although not all. The students are mentored so as pastors they can teach the reformed faith accurately, ie full of grace. During famines, TCWM has been able to provide much food to our students and faculty which is all African. TCWM supports a clinic with free medical service for all who come. St Andrew’s first supported TBI in 2019.
Each of these steps have now been completed and the position has been posted. Our PNC will now begin the process of receiving candidates.
