local impact
At Vista we want to impact our world in such a way that we point people toward Jesus.  That most likely won't happen unless we are actually in our community.  Here are some links to area websites that Vista has partnered with before so that you can know what's going on around you and get involved in impacting northwest Columbus.

Dublin Moms Bible Study
Moms from the Dublin community will meet Thursday mornings from 9:30 – 11:30 at Indian Run Methodist Church, June 11th – August 20th.   We will be doing a Beth Moore study on the book of Esther.  If you are interested please send an email to: donitaparizek@columbus.rr.com.

Digital Disciples
A free monthly gathering, open to the public in Central Ohio, that consists technology training and a time of Bible study / discussion / prayer / fellowship. The technology sessions will include basic computing, graphic and web design, audio and video, photography, networking, programming, search-engine optimization, etc.). Anyone is invited. You don't have to be a technology or theology expert at all!  As we grow, the desire is to unselfishly share the knowledge and talents God has blessed us with. The focus will be on what is most important, sharing our love for Jesus with those that might not yet know Him! For more information please visit www.DigitalDisciples.net. Feel free to email Gabe Taviano at gtaviano@taviano.com or call him at 614-787-8544.

Men's On-Ramp Breakfast  
We're each at a different place in our journey with God – maybe you need a group of guys to talk to about 'guy stuff' every couple weeks; maybe you're interested in knowing your Bible better; maybe God's speaking into your life in a unique way lately and you just want to process it with some other men; maybe life has delivered you a tough blow and you could use a friend that's been through something similar. The point is that we want to ensure men have a place to go and, with others, follow where God is leading them. Scott Streator and Daryl Mayfield will be having breakfast at the Bob Evan's on Post Rd in Dublin on Friday mornings at 6:45am. They are trustworthy men who don't claim to have all the answers but are willing to face life honestly. Our prayer is to build upon these initial gatherings and continue them through the remainder of summer, into fall and beyond. Come on out and let's see what God does with us.
