Volunteers in Mission
What is VIM 
A United Methodist Volunteers in Mission (UMVIM) team is one that serves locally, notionally, or internationally where it is invited; works in a ministry endorsed by the host Methodist church, partner church or agency, or nongovernment organization (NGO); and serves in cooperation with the local host group.
The UMVIM motto, “Christian Love in Action,” is taken from 1John 3:18, in which Christians are asked to love “not in word or speech, but in truth and action.” Living our faith is at the very heart of our Christian calling and reflects the purpose that has grown out of our understanding of who we are and what we want to be: those who express “Christian Love in Action.”
