Happy & Dianne are true partners in founding The Vineyard Church of Central Illinois. The partnership began over 30 years ago when they met and married at the U of I. After a few years in secular careers, they founded the Vineyard in 1978. The change in their lives came when Dianne was declared infertile by two major hospitals. A friend suggested they pray for children. Hap & Di did, and God blessed them with five natural children. From this life-changing experience, they started a Bible study that grew into the current Vineyard. The focus from the beginning has been healing, the Holy Spirit, and the Kingdom of God. Happy has served in various roles throughout Vineyard USA. In additional to being a Vineyard USA Board member, Happy was the Regional Overseer for the Midwest Region. Happy also directed Vineyard Partners (a group of 30 churches) which is involved in Vineyard church planting throughout central Mexico. VIEW MORE CONTENT FROM HAPPY
