Statement of Faith [ Back to top ]

Vision New England("VNE") uses the following to express its Statement of Faith:

The Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin Birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory.
That for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
The present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
The resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
The spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.

History [ Back to top ]

New England is a place that needs Jesus. That's why in 1887 believers from seven denominations banded together as the Evangelistic Association of New England, now known as Vision New England.

Their visionary unity in Christ's service sparked an organization which would, in its first century, draw believers from some 80 denominations to unite in outreaches to diverse populations throughout the region.

Today, Vision New England's mission is to network individual Christians and local churches who are committed to evangelizing New England through healthy churches. We strive to be the best resource for equipping Christians in everyday evangelism, developing effective leaders, and growing a network of healthy churches.
