When
Rev. Tom Furrer isn’t working on Trinity Episcopal Church in
Wethersfield’s many community projects, he’s raising money to fund
medical clinics in Nigeria.
Furrer,
who was named pastor in January, served for many years at a different
Trinity Church, located in the Tariffville section of Simsbury. In 2016,
he retired to focus on his nonprofit organization, Kateri Medical Services, which runs five clinics in areas of Nigeria where people don’t have access to medical services.
Furrer
will work part-time at the church so he can continue to focus on his
mission work. His dedication to serving others fits in perfectly with
his new church, he said.
“One
of the things I love about this parish is the servant hearts of so many
people here. Even though it is a relatively small parish, they have
great energy for helping people in need, both locally and around the
world,” Furrer said.
