Through partnerships with hospitals, prisons, schools and churches, we’re seeing hope restored to individuals and communities as we work together to overcome the challenges of HIV and AIDS.
HIV moves along the fault lines of society, intersecting with multiple pillars of culture, including family, justice and health. Catalytic Ministries engage with communities impacted by HIV in multiple ways, including providing access to medical care, raising awareness of the dangers of HIV infection, mentoring families who’ve been affected by HIV and AIDS and training people in a Christian response to the HIV and AIDS pandemic.
Throughout the ministry, we aim to reflect Jesus, uphold individuals’ dignity and empower them, act with integrity, build community and remain relevant.

The empowered in action
Channels of Hope
Available in both Russian and English, Channels of Hope Facilitator Training is an intensive programme for people working with the vulnerable, marginalised or those affected by HIV and AIDS. Participants are challenged in their thinking, come away with changed perceptions, gain the skills to present Channels of Hope workshops themselves and have the ability to make a real difference in the HIV and AIDS pandemic.
Community-based Programmes
Teams reach out to local communities, showing the compassion of Christ to people living with, or vulnerable to, HIV. Programmes vary from place to place but often include HIV prevention sessions in schools and prisons, workshops in churches to raise awareness, mentoring vulnerable children and youth, partnerships with local healthcare services and support for individuals living with HIV.
