Covid forced some changes but didn't stop us...

We missed gathering with you at events where we could enjoy fellowship, laugh, learn, and support World Vision's work together. But we continued meeting regularly via Zoom throughout the pandemic shut-downs, and our Action team has been creative in finding ways to serve our local community without violating social distancing guidelines. We anticipate this year will be one of transition back to meeting in person when the guidelines allow. We are all remembering the children and families in Kenya, Honduras, and Syria, who have been seriously impacted by these uncertain times.

​Women of Vision in Action

World Vision and Women of Vision know that life can be very hard for children and families on the other side of the world as well as in our own local communities. This is why Women of Vision in Action teams are serving locally, so that we, with God's help, can make a difference in the lives of others close to home.​ 

If we have your email, you will receive an invitation each month for our Action opportunities. Click on the "Partner With Us" tab to join our mailing list.

Monthly Prayer Call

We invite you to join us in prayer at 8 a.m. the second Wednesday of each month. We pray for our World Vision work, our Columbia-Willamette chapter activities, and for one another.

If you'd like to receive reminders and call-in info, please email Roxane Sain. If you'd like us to pray for you (even if you can't call in), please email your request to Roxane.
