Alpha

Did you know around 40% of Vineyard churches did Alpha or Alpha Youth at least once in 2024?

Vineyard USA partners with Alpha USA to create environments of hospitality, curiosity, and proclamation of who Jesus is and what he has done. Questions welcome! Through Alpha, churches have created an operating system for their church to grow as hubs for folks who don’t know Jesus to explore faith, encounter God, and experience authentic community. In turn, people take steps forward in their faith journey — including becoming a follower of Jesus.

Do Good Works...

In your neighborhood
Matthew 22:36-40

Will we love God right where we are by loving our neighbors and the communities around us? Our neighbors live right next to us, on the other side of town, they’re like us, and unlike us. God has placed us in cities and towns to love people well.

Currently, a regional resource is being rolled out to the country called Seeking the Heart of Your City or Town. Click the link to access or preview the material. Watch this video of John Elmer, VUSA Super Regional Leader, breaking down how he loves his hometown of Syracuse:

Among the marginalized
Luke 4: 16-20

“God’s heart is broken over the poor, the helpless, the oppressed, the homeless and the mentally ill, if your timetable makes no room for them, you must reconsider it. Countless generations have heard that God cares for the needy and wants His people to reach out to them. Few people have obeyed.” – John Wimber

In the Vineyard, we don’t just talk about justice and compassion. We follow Jesus’ actions to proclaim and demonstrate God’s Kingdom in concrete ways.

And equip others to go and do likewise
Luke 10:37

Vineyard Justice Network is a community of Vineyard learners and practitioners who want to grow in practicing Jesus-centered, kingdom justice and radical mercy through immersion gatherings, trainings, learning cohorts with seasoned leaders, and affinity-based meet-ups to build support for the long haul. Vineyard Justice Network helps you to “get proximate” to the needs of your own city and pursue abundant life for everyone by connecting the work of heart, head, and hands with key issues of structural injustice and community engagement.
