01Friday nights
Truth Seekers
Young people bring great energy to any social or church environment. Our local assembly thrives on reaching, training and empowering them towards community service.
Friday nights are for teenagers and young adults. Most cannot ask tough questions at home and do not find safe spaces for dialogue. Our youth leadership team creates one, for honest conversations about premarital sex, drug and alcohol addiction, the existence of God, the need for morality, our purpose on this earth, worldviews and more.
02Local SASSA offices
SASSA
The SASSA offices are less than a kilometre from our church building. The South African Social Security Agency pays monthly grants such as old age, disability and child support.
People applying often arrive early in the morning and wait for long hours without food or drink, inside or outside the crowded facilities. Our volunteer team goes out to serve refreshments, offer counselling and pray with them.
03Care for the aged
St Mary’s Centre
At the heart of our ministry is care for the aged and destitute. St Mary’s is a facility for older people, and many residents have no visitors because family and friends live too far away.
Our ministry team visits to host Christmas carols, Easter services and birthdays, and often just to spend time with the residents. We take great joy in serving refreshments, counselling, praying and singing with them.
