Bishop William T. Turner, Jr. &

In Jeremiah 3:15, God speaks through His prophet telling him, “I will give you shepherds according to My heart who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.”
Bishop William T. Turner, Jr. is such a pastor. His love for God is exemplified through his love for God's people, especially those he shepherds in the Trinity family. He is a confident, but humble man who has a heart for God and a desire to see God's people mature into the fullness and purpose God has for their lives. Bishop Turner is a compassionate and approachable leader whose life reflects integrity and character. He is a skilled administrator, planner and organizer whose relevant vision for the church is designed to help meet the needs of people on all levels—spiritually, naturally and emotionally. His anointed preaching and teaching style has blessed and help lay the foundation for spiritual growth in the lives of many.
Bishop Turner is a recipient of a Masters of Theology degree from Multnomah Biblical Seminary.

In addition to his local pastorate and national church responsibilities, Bishop Turner also serves on various civic and community boards within the greater Portland metropolitan area. He is a board member on the Albina Ministerial Alliance where he currently holds the position of Vice President.
God, in His wisdom, has chosen Evangelist Patricia A. Turner for such a time as this. She is a woman of great faith and determination. Her life exemplifies the grace, integrity and character of one that depends and trusts completely upon God. As the First Lady of Trinity, she demonstrates love and compassion for God's people and is willing to do all she can to help them to mature naturally as well as spiritually. Through the life she lives, she shows herself to be an example for women to follow allowing God to be glorified to her life.
