The Relay Trust facilitates leadership training for the Christian church through partnering with churches across Africa, providing professional expert advice, supporting the development of training strategies and through targeted financial support.

The goal of this training will be to enable leaders to teach Christians how to live as disciples of Jesus through the daily challenges of life – birth, sickness, marriage, family, work, community, ageing and death.

The core skill in which these leaders will be trained is to explain discipleship through reading the Bible narratives, discerning their central meaning, and communicating this to those in their care.

The Relay Trust focuses on training at the ‘grass-roots’ level, delivered within the community, using language and concepts appropriate to the context.

The geographic focus of the Relay Trust will be the regions covered by the 200 poorest Dioceses within the Anglican Communion. The denominational focus of the Charity will be the Provinces of the Anglican Communion. The Charity aims to focus 70% of expenditure on these areas and this denomination.
