VisionVestors Emergency Response
Friends,
In the last few years we have watched the news with shock and sadness as we saw Haiti,Chili, and Japan hit with davastating earthquakes. We have seen the reports of floods, hurricanes, and tornadoes. Now, for us living in Missouri, our neighbors have been struck with an F5 tornado. Below you can see some of the before and after pictures. It is hard to imagine the drastic changes a tornado can cause in just a few minutes.

Grace Covenant International Conference 2012
Wednesday-Friday April 25-27
We have this conference once every four years. So, it is an extremely special time as we gather with our international partners, GC representatives, VisionVestors members and guests for three days of fellowship, worship, prayer, ministry and strategic connection at a delightful beach resort on the beautiful Caribbean Sea. Our goal is to have representatives from our churches, ministries and respective nations where we have ministry works in the world. (We have ministry works on four continents: Africa, Europe, North America and South America.) It gives opportunity to connect with the people in the nations where we have our service projects. You will be able to hear firsthand about the work, the progress and the impact. Its an investment that strengthens relationships, as we serve the Lord. We will feast at a cross-cultural buffet in the Presence of the Lord. The experience is always inspirational, enriching, world stretching and unifying for Christs Kingdom. You will emerge with new friendships, greater vision for Kingdom partnership and precious gifts from the Spirit. The conference is held at Barceló Capella Beach Resort-Juan Dolio, Dominican Republic which is an all-inclusive resort (includes all meals) and is 25 minutes from the Santo Domingo Airport.
