Brief History
Trinity Theological Seminary stands as the foremost Ecumenical Theological Tertiary Institution in Ghana and the wider West African sub-region. Established in 1942, it emerged as a collaborative effort in ministerial training by three original sponsoring churches: the Methodist Church of Ghana, the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, and the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, of Ghana. Later, in 1967, the joint Anglican Diocese Council of Ghana, now the Accra Diocese, joined the initial three, followed by the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church.
Situated on a picturesque 70-acre campus, just seven miles from the heart of Accra, Trinity Theological Seminary offers an ideal and tranquil environment conducive to study, meditation, and personal growth. Over the years, Trinity has expanded its reach to embrace non-sponsoring churches, ensuring that clergy and leaders from diverse denominational backgrounds receive quality theological training. Today, Trinity's student body reflects a rich cross-cultural tapestry, with international students and visiting lecturers from various corners of the globe.
