The Single Vision Connection
Single Vision is the first Member Care program designed to precisely address the needs of single adults
who serve cross-culturally. The renewal retreat that has been in existence for seven years with annual
programs held in Europe and Asia. Single Vision is formed by multiple service organizations with the
focus to serve the needs of single servants globally. All STAFF MEMBERS have long-term overseas
service experience as single adults and speak from personal experience of what it means to thrive and
maintain balance in a constant changing atmosphere abroad as Christian workers.
"Single Vision" is designed to…
renew the inner man, physical, emotional, social and ministry skills. To be refreshed as you share
time together with other singles in an informal setting; to talk over challenges and to hear about
how God is at work in a variety of countries.
