Welcome,

My name is Forrest Berg, a Christian by faith, a Lutheran by religion, 83 years of age, and like you a fellow sojurner,who is reaching out and having hopes to make a difference in our

world by sharing with all who might read this invitation, the following truths,and opportunities.

Affecting us all, is the fact that our world has not only become more and more polarized,but in many instances,the polarization has sprouted into factions of tribalism, sectarianism, and cancel culture.

There is only one commonality and truth that is inherent in all mankind - our loving God who

created all seen and unseen, the stars, the universe, the air we breathe,and created man, in His image to glorify Him by loving others.

Every person born is gifted by God with a heart that has been sown to love and to plant those seeds of love in the hearts and lives of others.

Each day God gives all mankind new opportunities to use their energies to make a difference in the lives of others, which in small ways and not so small ways,will bring change to hearts, minds, and the world we live in .

Ministry-Vineyard will be one of these new opportunities, dedicated to the changing of hearts, minds, and energies through a free access website that is structured to provide all communities of faith the opportunities and pathways where all can help Plant, (upload) Harvest , (download) and Maintain

(water) a Vineyard of unlimited shared Outreach and Hospitality Ministries, and additionally provide all the ability to further communicate (blog) by sharing their thoughts and needs

Included in the list of Ministries will be fishing-"give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach him

how to fish and he and his family will eat for a lifetime" - Ministry Vineyard will prayerfully, hopefully, teach the world how to fish; so all can - "Cast in their Nets", and become " Fishers of Men. ”

It is my hope that what has been shared will be embraced as a new opportunity and that you will consider sending this invitation to one or more others.

Looking forward to your thoughts and comments, and most importantly invite you to "Join Hands ” to make a difference in those we know, are yet to know, and our own.

To God be the Glory,
Forrest Berg
