Spreading the Faith

For millions of Christians living in some of the most inaccessible parts of the world, the Word of God reaches them over the airwaves, on television, in print and on the Internet far more easily than a priest or Sister can visit. Supporting media projects to spread the Word of God is a key priority for Aid...

Teaching the Faith

Your generosity is keeping the Faith alive – and nurturing it for future generations – by helping to teach people about Christianity. In many of the countries where we work, priests rely on their catechists to run religious education programmes for people of all ages.
