One Vision International

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN TAKING A TRIP WITH YOUR OWN GROUP, OR WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN US ON ONE ALREADY PLANNED?

Each of our short-term trips are specifically designed to meet the strategic needs of our partnerships, missionaries or potential partnerships. God has blessed His church with many people who possess varying gifts, abilities and talents, and He is using all of us to help support the efforts of Christians and missionaries abroad. Almost all of our trips require no extraordinary skills or previous experience and are great for first-timers.

Jesus Christ told us to "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations.” One Vision International takes this command seriously. We are actively involved in impacting people for the sake of Jesus Christ, and you can be a part of this exciting ministry.

Contact John Miller at missions@onevisioninternational.org or call 865.684.7117 if you are interested in taking a trip with your own group or church.
