Testimonials
"I first went to this conference as an apathetic freshman, devoid of real spiritual life. Vision had the effect of soul-searing dynamite in waking me up to the reality of God's glory. God used that conference to set me on a path of a worship of Him that I have not turned from. Each year, and now as a senior, I look forward to the Vision conference because it is a chance to worship, see what God is doing around the world, and re-orient my life so that it fits His plans and purposes for the world. To me, being left out of Vision is being left out of a chance to experience what God is doing for His kingdom among the nations as we speak."
Bob Kubinec, Senior at Warwick HS, PA
"The times that I have spent at the Vision conference, have made a lasting impact on my life. Worshipping, listening to speakers, and learning alongside of so many middle and high school students who share the same passion to bring people to the feet of Jesus is an experience that cannot be described. I have never been to a mission conference that has the same kind of intense focus on God's will for our generation as Vision does. Through the speakers and worship sessions at Vision, God has spoken to my heart in ways that I did not think possible. Additionally, the fellowship that you can enjoy with kids from all over who share your faith is incredibly encouraging and uplifting. Overall, Vision is an amazing experience and I recommend it to anyone who has the desire to see people find God's love for them."
Melissa McDevitt, Senior at Ridley HS, PA
"VISION is an incredible conference. Its often difficult to get most students interested in a missions conference, but getting them to VISION is never a problem. My students not only have a great time but their hearts are being turned towards missions which is exciting. The increased vision for the world in our students' lives is so important. The challenge to abandon self to follow Christ and reach the world is vital. And the worship and fellowship with other students just pumps our kids up. We also use VISION as a pre-requisite for all of our students going out on short-term mission trips. It is a great place to jump-start their training and preparation for the summer trips."
Rich Landosky, Youth Pastor, Aldan Union Church , Aldan, PA
"I remember the first time I went to Vision very well. Throughout the conference, God spoke to my heart through the Holy Spirit, beckoning me to follow Him wherever he may lead me, whatever the cost. Vision prompted me to dig deeper within myself and examine my values and what I labeled as "important" in my life. I have never been to another missions conference that so recklessly urges young people to reach farther in this world, abandon selfish interests and ambitions, and follow God to uncharted territories in faith and action."
Will Donahue, Senior at Upper Darby HS, PA
"What can I say the Vision Conference instills vision to students about what God is doing globally and how they can be part of His plan. It is spine tingling to come away from this conference and have students instilled with a vision and enthused about carrying it out."
Kevin Henderson, Youth Pastor, Living Word Community Church , York, PA
"There is nothing like Vision Conference! Powerful worship, compelling drama and video, carefully crafted breakout sessions and a dynamic speaker all make this experience unique. Each of these elements are centered around expanding a teenager's view of God and His world. We use Vision Conference as a part of our Short Term mission training, requiring all students who participate on a short term trip to go to Vision Conference."
Greg Despres, Youth Pastor, Calvary Church , Lancaster, PA
"The Vision Conference is a unique creation. No where else can teenagers get this kind of challenge for world evangelization geared especially for them. And the beauty of Vision is that it assists the church and it's youth workers. The Vision team is great at helping leaders to build missions back in their home church."
