Message of Hope and Renewed Vision: New Year 2026

To our Esteemed Partners, Pillars of Support, and the Global Trinity Family, As we stand at the threshold of 2026, I am filled with a profound sense of gratitude and holy anticipation. At Trinity Christian Academy (TRICA), nestled in the heart of Northern Nigeria, we do not merely see ourselves as an educational institution; we are a lighthouse. Our mission—“Creating Young Minds for Godly Productivity”—is a sacred mandate to transform the narrative of the less privileged through excellence and faith.

Legacy of Excellence

In a region where quality education is often a luxury, TRICA stands as a testament to what is possible when vision meets vintage Christian values. . . We provide a standard of education and boarding facilities that rival the most elite institutions in the state—yet we do so at no cost to our pupils/students. This is made possible by our faculty: a team of God-fearing young graduates who serve not just as teachers, but as mentors and models of diligent stewardship.

Our Heartfelt Gratitude

To our highly esteemed partners and donors from all walks of life: your generosity is the fuel behind every life transformed. Because of you, a child from a vulnerable rural community now masters technology, understands global economics, and walks in the fear of the Lord. We pray that the windows of heaven remain open over your endeavors. May the Lord, who sees your secret sacrifices, reward you openly (Matthew 6:4). We decree that as you have watered these "little ones," your own lives shall be continually refreshed, and your influence shall expand into new territories in this new year.

A Call to Deepened Commitment

The harvest in Northern Nigeria is truly plenteous. While we celebrate our successes, the queue of children waiting for a chance at a future is long. The "goodwill" of Trinity Christian Academy is our greatest asset, but our "prospects" depend on your continued, unwavering partnership.
In 2026, I invite you to move from being a supporter to being a Vision Stakeholder. We need a renewed and stronger commitment—one that scales our capacity to reach more communities. Let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart (Galatians 6:9). Together, let us raise a generation that is intellectually formidable and spiritually unshakeable. Thank you for believing in the gold hidden in the rural heartlands.

Yours in Service and Vision,

Mrs. Hannah Azeez (Head Mistress)
