Aviv Ministry
We have been working since 2005 in south Tel Aviv. We help street addicts, alcoholics, and prostitutes meet their basic needs like food and clothes. Our main purpose, however, is to help these people get fully restored, return to normal life and their families, and become a blessing to others.
We know that only the Lord Jesus can really make all these changes in their lives. That is why at our day center in Tel Aviv we actively preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, who came to this earth to save sinners – including those who seem totally hopeless.
Aviv Center is open seven days a week. Hundreds of addicts pass through every month. Those men and women who want to get rid of their addictions for good are sent to Christian rehab centers. In the short video on this page you can see the streets we are working on, Aviv Center in Tel Aviv and our rehabilitation center for men in Beer-Sheva that was opened in 2013. We see that many of the rehabilitants not only leave drugs and fully restore their lives, but also start serving others. Most Aviv Center volunteers are ex-addicts who return to their former companions in order to help them get clean and find peace with God.
To Him only is all the honor, glory and praise!
In 2020 we opened a Shelter for women and their children in crisis with problems such as domestic violence, prostitution, human trafficking, and extreme financial difficulties. In 2022 we started another project – supporting new Jewish immigrants in Ashkelon, where we have also been distributing humanitarian aid among the needy (single mothers, handicapped, and the elderly).

Video of our work
“The Last Stop” (above) is a short video about the work of Aviv Ministry in one of the most hopeless areas in Israel.
Where once was a bus station, now there is a place of prostitution, drug abuse, homelessness, and refugees. With a soup kitchen close to the old bus station and a rehab center in Beer Sheva, Aviv Ministry aims to help those who can't help themselves.
