Viz-A-Viz Ministries Latest News

Viz-A-Viz Ministries has produced the More to Christmas card again this year to help you engage in conversation with people who you have contact with this Christmas.

The card has a DVD inside which contains seven real life stories of how Jesus can, and has, affected people’s lives.

Each card can be over-printed with your church’s details so there is a … Continue Reading

Dear friend,

Rich turned to Jesus after some tragic and difficult problems in his life that resulted in depression, alcoholic poisoning and a sense of complete abandonment. I am writing this letter whilst listening to him teaching 25 adults about personal evangelism.  Rich is now an associate evangelist with Viz-A-Viz Ministries whilst training at theological college. God does miracles!

I am privileged to work alongside such a committed and creative team at Viz-A-Viz Ministries who serve with energy, dedication and longing to see people’s lives transformed—the whole team is enthused about serving Jesus Christ.

Newbury Baptist Church Weekend Away

On the weekend of 8th – 10th April, I was down in Bournemouth working with the young people from Newbury Baptist Church, on their church weekend away.  We had a team of five people; myself (Rich), Wayne Dixon (Scripture Union), Claire Almond and Emma Stone (previous Viz-A-Viz Ministries volunteers) and Ben Carman (top bloke and Emma’s boyfriend!).   The church hired out an entire hotel for the weekend, the sun was shining, the beach was a stone’s … Continue Reading

At times, if I am honest, there have been moments when I have felt that this was all too much.

Somehow, in the … Continue Reading

In this final powerful clip from the ‘Unlock the Power of the Church’ conference, Dennis Pethers challenges us with the question of whether we have made church what we want it to be and have forgotten the importance of the church existing for the sake of those who don’t know Jesus.

Watch ‘What do you do when something doesn’t work?’ now to discover where the unlocked power lies within your church and imagine the difference it would make if every … Continue Reading
