Verso is part of the Vineyard movement, and in the UK the Vineyard Missions Network works to ensure local churches have the opportunity to fulfil the biblical call to go and make disciples of all nations, as we extend the Kingdom together everywhere in every way.  In aligning ourselves with how God is leading us as a movement, to go, equip and partner in the nations, we are joining a partnership of UK churches (Catalyst, Croydon and Verso), who will be committed to serving what God is outworking in and through Vineyard in Sri Lanka.

For the last twenty years, Vineyard churches have been present in Sri Lanka, weathering persecution, war, and economic crisis.  And yet, through all of that, the church is growing. Despite the hardship, the church is experiencing rapid multiplication, as people are coming to Jesus, being discipled and planting churches. There are now seven established churches, and increasingly young leaders are rising up in faith and expectation, and are stepping out to plant new churches, as they steward many new believers. By 2030, the vision is to see 20 churches established.

As a multi-site church ourselves, we are being invited to journey with Sri Lanka in PRAYING,  GIVING FINANCIALLY and pouring ENCOURAGEMENT into this next generation of leaders, as well as offering support in helping them to establish governance and Vineyard values in a different culture. We will be meeting with leaders in Sri Lanka monthly,  and will be part of sending teams out to Sri Lanka to serve and equip.  With the growth they are experiencing, we know that as we invest in this partnership, we will also learn,  be challenged and grow immensely through these leaders.
