WHAT IS "VOLUNTEERS IN MISSION"

The Oklahoma Volunteers in Mission program is a ministry of the Oklahoma Conference of The United Methodist Church. The purpose of the program is to share the love of Jesus Christ in ways that make a Christian difference.

Mission tasks, which vary by site, include construction, mission Bible school, medical, education and teaching, and HIV/AIDS outreach.

Missions are in Oklahoma, elsewhere in the United States, and international. Oklahoma VIM international projects for 2005 are scheduled in Belize, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Cuba, Czech, El Salvador, England, Ghana, Haiti, Honduras, Guatemala, Kenya, Panama, Poland, Puerto Rico, Slovakia, South Africa, Russia and Venezuela.
