Vineyard USA Events
Join us for an upcoming event.
Intentional environments for fostering beloved community for historically under-represented leaders through hospitality, leadership development, and mentoring.
What Associations do
Associations are spaces for development and influence
Vineyard USA Associations create intentional environments for leadership development, mentoring, and hospitality for historically underrepresented pastors and leaders.
They also provide formal structures where these voices are consistently heard at the national leadership table of Vineyard USA.
"My ethnic & racial identity—it's not all of who I am, but it's important to God & how He made me. The AAPI Association has helped me lean into that as a leader, a father, and a friend."
– Caleb Chou, AAPI Association

Podcasts with Vineyard USA Associations Leaders

Conversations helping us grow in life with Jesus and each other. A production of Vineyard USA, hosting guests from across the body of Christ and within the Vineyard movement.
In this episode of We Are Vineyard, we are celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month! Rubén Quintero, leader of our Hispanic Association chats with Joel and Emmy Seymour about their visit to the US/Mexico border, Miguel Aviles about pastoring a predominantly immigrant Vineyard church, and Jimmy Reyes about the cultural differences in Hispanic and American churches, navigating a multilingual church, and maturing toward unity.Â
Joel Seymour serves as a Super Regional Leader for Vineyard USA.Â
Emmie Seymour is a junior studying nursing at Lee University in Cleveland, Tennessee. She has a deep desire to combine healthcare and missions and feels a calling to become a medical missionary. Her love for the Vineyard runs deep – she grew up at the Lancaster Vineyard in Ohio, where she’s served in many roles over the years, from leading Alpha small groups to volunteering with kids and serving as a youth ambassador. Emmie completed the leadership track for Project Timothy in 2023, which helped shape her growth as a leader.
Miguel Aviles serves as the lead pastor of La Viña Burnsville in Minnesota alongside his wife Rocio Hernandez. La Viña Burnsville is a vibrant and diverse community, representing people from 17 different Latin American countries and highlighting the cultural richness of the body of Christ. Additionally, the church is home to a flourishing Brazilian ministry, led by a dedicated team, which continues to grow and impact lives with the message of the Gospel.
Jimmy Reyes is the lead pastor of the Valley Vineyard in Reseda, CA. He has helped plant two Viña communities in Los Angeles, produced 2 Spanish albums with Vineyard Worship, and led worship at the first Vineyard Hispanic Gathering in the 90’s as a teenager. He also currently serves Vineyard USA as an Area Leader in Southern California.Â
