Vision New England (VNE) is a diverse network of 1000+ ministries and exists to accelerate evangelism by making disciples who do justice and share Jesus … to transform New England and our world!

Jesus tells us that unity and doing justice is evangelistic (John 17:21, Matt. 5:16) so our top priority is to build unity, across traditional divides, most especially race and ethnicity, while enabling sharing, learning and collaboration, to do justice.

We accelerate this work by connecting leaders and churches, with targeted groups and technology, where they share, learn and collaborate to “make disciples who do justice and share Jesus,” while building relationships that lead to real unity in the Church. There is much to do but we’re excited to see God move in it already!
