Missions

Jesus was absolutely confident that the Great Commission would be achieved. He said in Matthew 24:14: “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Well, how close are we? The Lord also calls us to be absolutely confident He will help us as we carry out the mission. He promised in Matthew 28:20, “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” He promises that His authority and power will be with us as we carry out this Great Commission. I suppose that means He will show up as we share the Good News of Christ!  Keith Green’s song, “Here Am I, Send Me” is a powerful challenge for our generation.  Check it out on youtube: Keith Green Video
 
Alive Vineyard (Formerly, Vineyard Of Licking County) since it’s very inception, has given 10% of the church’s General Fund donations to missions. We believe in tithing as individuals and as a church.  We end up giving far more than 10% because that does not include Brazil church planting, Heartbeats “Bottles for Life”, Servant Evangelism outreaches, special offerings, our Needy Fund and much more. Jesus said to “give and it shall be given back to you …”  He has – far more than we ever imagined or deserve.  If you’d like to share in the rewards of giving, send your donations to: Alive Vineyard, 7602 Stewart Road, Newark, OH 43055. Thank you and join us in praying for these local and distant missions that help fulfill the Great Commission of our Lord!

Alive Vineyard Brazil Mission Team
Also:  We regularly take teams to the back rivers of the Amazon Basin in Brazil to reach many unreached people groups with the gospel.  The next team is scheduled to go in 2018. This mission is over and above our 10% above designations.  Each team member is responsible for raising their prayer and financial support.  God has more than blessed this calling!
 
“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, ‘All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:  Teach them to observe all the things that I have commanded you: and note, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.’
 
Matthew 28:18
