About

What is Catalyst?

We are a movement of churches building communities that raise disciples who change the world.

With our roots in Newfrontiers, we are a family of around 300 churches connected together through genuine relationship. and are served by a number of apostolic teams who aim to equip churches to raise pioneering disciples that see God’s kingdom fill the earth.

Though there isn’t a blueprint for all Catalyst churches, you’ll find that we all share the same vision and apostolic foundations, worked out differently in each church’s unique setting. Our vision is to reveal and bring Jesus and His Kingdom to every environment in this nation and the nations. Catalyst churches are characterised by firstly the strength of our relationships with God and one another. Secondly, by the valuing of our different gifts and the understanding that as we come together we add to the whole of who we are. Finally, by a deep commitment to work together to reveal the wonder of who Jesus is.

Working Together

We stay connected locally, nationally and internationally to build family as a wider church; drawing on each other’s strengths, gifting, teachings and testimonies to challenge and encourage each of us to see God’s Kingdom fill the earth.

This happens regularly though Catalyst Hubs, smaller groups of churches whose leadership teams meet together often for prayer, encouragement and connection. We also gather all Catalyst church leadership teams for a day together a couple of times a year, as well as everyone from our churches at our bi-annual Festival celebrating who we are and who we can be. Together, we send prayers, finance, teams and support to and for one another both in the UK and overseas.

Catalyst Team

Catalyst is led by the teams who lead the apostolic hubs that make up the backbone of our work. An apostolic team is a group of individuals called by Jesus to serve multiple churches – working across those churches to help them to build healthy teams, break new ground, lay healthy apostolic foundations and raise leaders.

These teams, in turn, are lead by the Catalyst Strategy Team. Led by Simon Holley, this team contains Sharon Clark, Matt Hatch, Adrian Hurst, Andy Johnston, Matt Partridge, Andrew Simpkins, Martin Tibbert, Richard Wightman and Phil Wilthew.
