Vineyard Cincinnati Church is passionate about loving the people of this city well. We're proud of being a church that invites people to have a relationship with Jesus, by doing small things with great love. That's our mission, and the people of this church are excited to fulfill that mission.

The Student Ministry of Vineyard Cincinnati is dedicated to leading students in 6th-12th Grades to become fully devoted followers of Christ, walking in the Spirit. By teaching truth from God's word and being culturally relevant, staff and volunteer leaders develop relationships with students during weekly worship and teaching experiences, as well as small groups.
