Love Fest

At Agape UK-SVG, we have run a number of international events, some of which we have ran every year since the inception of the charity.

Agape UK - SVG work in conjunction with Faith Word Ministries and we help the poor and elderly break free from poverty by providing them with food, clothing, medical care.

The work is carried out by volunteers who believe "overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity, it is an act of justice and a fundamental human right, the right to dignity and a decent life." 

Faith Word Ministries works to help poverty-stricken villages across the island regardless of faith or nationality.

Love Fest.

• The churches are the only ‘voluntary sector’ providing support to the community

• The church behind Love Fest sees this as part of their mission for outreach to the wider community – addressing not only the spiritual aspect of the person but also touching lives in tangible ways

• Love  Fest  has proved to be a success and is now is in its 6th year.
