Samples of the regional range and variety of development work of missionaries
Lesotho

Provision of a comprehensive medical care for our community all
under one roof of the clinic. Clinic provides voluntary HIV
counselling and testing, free anti-retroviral and free TB treatment
which aim to reduce the effects of HIV infection on the community.
South Africa

HIV and Nutrition Outreach through targeting 720 people in 2
communities and through these people as catalysts of change, educate
the communities on HIV/AIDS awareness, prevention and treatment
options. The education also includes the setting up of 26 gardens
and training the communities in the running of these gardens and the
nutritional support that these gardens can contribute to the
treatment of HIV/AIDS while taking other medications.

Support for a community driven, proactive, interfaith, peace project
centered upon non-violence reconciliation and care for creation in
Africa. Harnessing the capacity of the estimated 40,000 lay and
religious members in 39 countries in Africa, to build multi-ethnic,
multi-faith and mixed gender grass roots groups known as PACTS
(Pan-African Conciliation Teams) who will be trained in the values
and skills and knowledge required to grow and sustain the drive
towards social justice and poverty reduction.
South Africa
(Basic Education)
Creation of a musical written and composed by local youth, to
conscientitise urban youth towards embracing healthy lifestyle
values and empowering them to make informed decisions. This is a
holistic approach in addressing the high level of HIV infection,
drug addiction and gangsterism. The production also raises the issue
of empowerment of women. There are 45 performers and 43 on
production, technical and backstage crew. We aim to reach out to
over 500,000 disadvantaged youth.
