Partnerships of Hope challenges and resources the Virginia Conference to cultivate a mutuality of mission with our Partner countries.
Through this mutual partnership, we expect awareness of the others to be heightened, sustainability is sought, understanding of the ministry context is dependent, and relationships flourish.
POH also facilitates mutual partnerships in mission among the local churches, as they become the engine of overseas missions for the Virginia Conference.
As partners in God’s mission, together, we seek to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the World.

Like us!
Haiti
Haiti has been accepted as a new Partnership of Hope partner at the 2022 Virginia Conference. The POH Haiti team is searching for church partnerships, that will join with Eglise Methodiste d’ Haiti (EMH) to serve the people in Haiti.
Continue to pray for this partnership, as we find ways to serve together!
Vietnam Methodist Initiative
Vietnam Methodist Initiative (VMI) was accepted as a new Partnership of Hope at the 2022 Virginia Annual Conference. The Partnership of Hope VMI team is beginning to dream about how God is calling the Virginia Conference churches to be in relationship with our friends through VMI and the General Board of Global Ministries. We will be exploring ways we can join together in VMI’s missional priorities through supporting next generation ministries particularly with youth, college students, and young adults; training of pastoral leadership, especially for women clergy; building and fundraising for churches; and equipping migrant children with tools to be educated. We are looking forward to where God is leading us to go next!
