Welcome to the VUSA Midwest Central Region
Each of our churches has committed to being naturally supernatural people who love Jesus and are radically committed to seeing the kingdom of God impact every person within our reach – where the poor are cared for, the sick are healed, God is experienced in worship, and Christians are called to “do the stuff” that Jesus did.
In the US alone, about 150,000 people call 500+ Vineyard churches home. By organizing churches into regions, we are able to be a strongly connected national family of healthy churches —
each individual and interdependent, but transparent and accountable to each other.
The Midwest Central region helps to care for our local church pastors in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota and Kansas – strengthening relationships and building our sense of family which will result in stronger, healthier communities wherever there is a Vineyard church.

Midwest Regional Gathering
OCTOBER 23 – 25 | URBANA, IL
We want the Midwest Central Regional Gathering in October to be a time of intentional equipping, relationship building, and encouragement. Our hope is that this time will refresh and encourage you. There will be worship, group sessions, general training, and ministry.
We are opening this gathering to all pastors, lay leaders, and potential leaders you may have in your church. There is no cost for the event, but you will be responsible for lodging and any meals that aren’t included. Our heart is that you find our time together refreshing and strategic for both yourselves and the leaders you are developing. LEARN MORE →
