Local Impact

The Vineyard believes in creating opportunities to serve and strengthen our local Grand Strand community. From Ocean Isle and Calabash to the South End of the Grand Strand as well as through our online community, your financial contributions enable us to do the exciting work of sharing the Good News of the Kingdom.


We have specific ministries we partner with, as well as our own initiatives as we invest in our community.

  • Each November we join with other churches, groups and individuals to collect shoeboxes filled with toys, school supplies, personal items, and other small gifts. A booklet of bible stories is often distributed alongside the shoebox gifts which are given to children based on need alone, regardless of their faith. These boxes are then hand-delivered by volunteers with a compassionate touch and the message of the Good News. As of 2021 over 188 million boxes have been received by children from all kinds of cultures all around the globe.

Global Impact

When Jesus commissioned his disciples before His ascension, He said, "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."


At the Vineyard, we take this command of making disciples in all nations very seriously. We have missionaries sent from the Vineyard, as well as Global Partnerships living out the Great Commission all over the world.

  • Kimi and Raul Molina live out their Christian faith in the mountains of Talamanca, Costa Rica where Raul was born and raised. Their home now serves as a home for children in need, a center for ministry in their neighborhood and a place where the Good News of the Kingdom is taught and demonstrated. 


    We are blessed as a church to come alongside them in their ministry and participate in ongoing projects such as: community soccer tournaments, women's craft days, kid's ministry, Bible study, worship, and delivering meals to the elderly. They are currently in the process of building and opening a school for the underserved kids in the mountains.

    Your mission donations contribute to Kimi and Raul and the work of the Kingdom in Costa Rica.

  • Our partners in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal work with orphans, families, and many who have been largely ignored in their culture. The lead couple have multiplied their ministry into other families and individuals who represent the Savior in a difficult land and culture. Travel to Nepal is sporadic and strenuous and depends on the political and religious climate in country at the time. 

    We are pleased to be able to partner with the Nepal work for the Kingdom and your mission giving serves this work.

  • Your Next Step and Global Training Network is a leadership and church planting ministry that works in South America, Africa, and Europe. Their disciple-making strategy results in developing local and national leaders who are able to pastor, plant churches, counsel, and give hope to their own culture. Doug Dorman is our local leader and your mission giving enables us to work alongside Dr. Dorman and his team as they train leaders internationally.

  • Leave the 99 is a missional organization focusing on leadership training and health in Africa, Central America, and Europe. Jason and Kelly Wallace lead this ministry and serve as the point leaders for the VineyardUSA South Sudan mission project. We are happy to be able to have Jason and Kelly in our fellowship at Renovation Vineyard and to be able to contribute to this ministry.

  • We partner with Andy and Tena and Hesed Ministries in Southeast Asia. Hesed works with nationals in providing agricultural resources in areas where malnourishment is prevalent, especially among school age children. Their work has opened doors to share the Good News of the Kingdom and multiply their work in different parts of their adopted culture. 

    Your mission donations contribute to the work in this difficult part of the world.

Growth Groups

Life Groups are an essential part of our church, as they provide a place where deeper fellowship and better support for one another can take place. Considering that the early church worshipped in large settings in the synagogues as well as in homes, we unite together similarly in order to be in deeper fellowship with God and one-another. God has reconciled us not only to Himself but also to each other. This "each other" is called His Church. Thus, we intentionally strive toward community through men's/women's groups, home gatherings, and other personal settings.

Big Church, Small Community

We have been created to live in community and not in isolation. Physically, we do live in a community, but spiritually, socially, and relationally we often live our lives in isolation. We find ourselves with no one to turn to when we have a major issue that has just surfaced in our life. Living in community affords us the opportunity to more wholly experience God through close relationships as we play and pray together, as we encourage and help one another, and as we study and live out God’s word together.

AND LET US CONSIDER HOW WE MAY SPUR ONE ANOTHER ON TOWARD LOVE AND GOOD DEEDS. LET US NOT GIVE UP MEETING TOGETHER, AS SOME ARE IN THE HABIT OF DOING, BUT LET US ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER - AND ALL THE MORE AS YOU SEE THE DAY APPROACHING.

Hebrews 10:24-25

Missional Community


We believe the church is the family of God called to live on mission to advance His Kingdom. Because we are God's children through Jesus, we are to live as brothers and sisters. The church is not a building, place, or program, but God's people.


Living in community with one another is essential to growing in the Gospel and becoming more like Christ. Showing up to a Sunday gathering is great, but it is our desire to see everyone involved in a Missional Community. A Missional Community is not a mid-week program, but a family of missionary servants who are making disciple-making disciples daily. We would love to see all of our Missional Communities hanging out throughout the week, eating meals together and serving their neighborhoods. It is not something you check off a list, but a way of doing life.


Currently, we have seven Missional Communities and are multiplying continually.
