The primary school employs 14 teachers and enrolled 775 Maasai girl and boy students are in 2023. Each day, students fill wooden benches to transform their lives through education, leveling up their prospects for health and economic viability.

In this forum, Christ Church Greenwich parishioners will share stories from their journey to Tanzania. Come find why one of them called Endupoto School” a place where heaven touches earth.”

The Sunday Forums at Christ Church Greenwich are a continuing series of free talks, bringing important conversations to the Greenwich community. 

Christ Church is a lively community of faith composed of people with diverse backgrounds, circumstances, and spiritual journeys, bound together by God’s love for all people everywhere and united in the common mission to seek and serve God in all persons. We fulfill this work through the dedicated ministries of over 300 volunteers annually, who serve on more than 40 commissions, committees, guilds and task forces. In addition, the church hosts and supports more than 20 community meetings per week including 12-step programs, choral and music groups, neighborhood groups, and children’s programs. The Christ Church Preschool is a regional leader in early education, and our bookstore, Dogwood Gifts and Books, is a thriving resource of both faith-based and secular books. Their 40-year partnership with Neighbor to Neighbor allows them to serve those in Greenwich who are in need of food.

The Mission of Christ Church Greenwich is to be a vibrant Episcopal community proclaiming God’s love for every human being, no exceptions. Following Jesus’ teachings is their compass for personal growth, community outreach and harmonious living. Its vision is to seek and serve God in all people through inspiration from the Bible, worship, community outreach, music, and art in our sacred historic home.
