Community Ministries
Hatfield Christian Church relates to a network of community development ministries operational in communities in and around Gauteng. They are visible and active in the community and minister primarily to the un-churched. Some of these ministries feed the homeless, take care of the destitute, take in infants who have been abandoned or given up for adoption, counsel those who are HIV positive and teach skills to the poorest of the poor to enable them to find jobs. We see this as one of the ways in which Christ can be made real and relevant in our communities.
To find out more about our ministries and how you can get involved please call Edwin during office hours on +27 82 860 9785 or email for more information.

| Crocus Prophetic Ministry The Crocus is a flower that grows in the desert. This is very much like the prophets, they grow where they are planted. All who walk through the desert and see the Crocus flowering under difficult circumstances of intense heat, drought and lack of attention are encouraged. The ministry of the prophet is similar to the Crocus - it is a ministry of encouragement. Crocus' vision is expanding as God calls the prophets to work closely with the apostles. We have a vision for prophetic presbytery type ministry to build up the people of God who are called to minister to others. The mission of Crocus Ministries is to provide a safe haven for prophets and prophetic people to learn, train and fellowship. Despite the natural inclination of the prophets to be alone, they have a genuine need to function within relationships. This prevents the prophets from becoming discouraged and only relying on their own advice, counsel and revelation. |

| The Viva Foundation The Viva Foundation’s aim is to alleviate poverty and promote Christian family values in severely pressurised communities such as informal settlements. Several programmes are in operation: Through home-based OVC and HIV/AIDS care, Viva community workers extend assistance to families where Orphans and Vulnerable Children are housed, by providing food parcels, clothing, blankets, counselling and logistical assistance, e.g. obtaining ID’s, grants, accompanying the infirm to the clinic and getting orphans and vulnerable children back into school. Secondly, Viva establishes centres within informal settlements, creating a hub for community service through its own programmes such as Early Childhood Development (The Viva Kids), Skills Training and Small Business Development training, as well as inviting other charities to form strategic partnerships in addressing the needs of the community. The first of these Viva Villages, is being established in the Alaska Informal Settlement, Mamelodi-East. |
