Alternatives is first and foremost a ministry to women, in a crisis pregnancy situation. Each counsellor is a trained volunteer with an understanding of the physical and emotional effects of a crisis pregnancy, single parenting and abortion. We provide practical support by giving out maternity and baby clothes, equipment and products to our clients in need. As part of our services we offer workshops, talks and training on the truth about Crisis Pregnancy, Abortion, and Sexual Responsibility, helping individuals to understand the reality and impact of the choices they make.

We seek to meet the spiritual needs; educate on health matters; develop gardening projects; and provide social up-liftment of an informal settlement (among the poorest of the poor) on the outskirts of Uitenhage. We have ministered here over the past seven years.
We meet every Wednesday from 10h00 – 12h00, for worship, preaching, teaching and ministry.
We provide for the numerous needs of “Zoey’s Little Lamp” Creche. This has forty children, four teachers, a secretary and “voluntary” staff. The crèche operates five days a week. We also distribute foodstuffs, fruit, veggies and clothing on a regular basis.

This is a place where men can be themselves, share their struggles and victories, pray for and support each other, learn to be better husbands, fathers and friends, connect with God, and grow in their relationship with Jesus. From young to old, we meet on Friday mornings from 05h00 to 06h30 to pray and worship God, and to support and encourage each other. (We break only over school holidays).

Our women's ministry at the Storehouse is called Zest
(aromatic, enhancing flavour, adding spice, enthusiasm, energy and love for life)
This year we plan to have two major events for the ladies:
- Our "Fragrance" Conference on 18th - 19th May at the Storehouse
- Our ladies camp with dates and venue to be announced
This year sees the launch of our new Zest groups which are primarily social and fun in nature. They are the ideal forum for ladies to connect and to form and build relationships. They afford an ideal opportunity to help integrate new ladies into the church family and also create a safe environment to invite unchurched friends and family to. These groups do not replace the communities but rather they are meant to help integrate folk who are not yet committed to a community to do so.
We are trusting for more groups to emerge - currently the groups are as follows:
- Strawberries and Dreams (Cooking, connecting, beauty tips, decorating
and much more): Michelle @ 084 614 7276
- Ladies who Dine (Supper club with a difference): Gail @ 072 219 3734
- Book and Games Club: Carla @ 079 491 2490
- Craft Club : Karen @ 082 925 2368
- Eat, Pray, Love (Healthy body, sound mind): Elmien @ 083 231 7398
- Walking / Running Club: Karen @ 082 925 2368
- Photography Club: Louise @ 082 565 8741

The highest order of man is to worship God.
