01 / ASSIST
We know there are incredible needs throughout the Caribbean, and we want to meet them all, but we know that isn't our calling or mission. We assist the local church in America and the Caribbean by connecting local churches in America to local churches throughout the Caribbean.
02 / CONNECT
We believe life is better when we do life with other followers of Christ. People need to be connected. We desire to connect American Aid, Mission workers, and Pastors with local churches throughout the Caribbean so the work of the Gospel can move forward.
03 / REACH
If all we do is connect people to those in need, we aren't providing for the most significant need every one of us has: to come to know Jesus personally and follow Him with our lives. At CVM, we know this is the greatest need we could ever help meet.

He has served with the Caribbean Vision Ministries team for Haiti since 2005.

Pastor Bill Tweeddale is our U.S. Contact Person for The Bahamas. Bill is the Pastor of Oceanview Fellowship in Indialantic, Florida. He is a graduate of Clearwater Christian College and the Southern Baptist Seminary. Bill is ordained in the Charis Fellowship and serves as a member of the Fellowship Council. Frequent vacation visits to the Bahamas transformed into a place of missions and ministry for Bill and his wife Jennifer. Jennifer spent her childhood in the Bahamas while her father worked at down range tracking, stations for the U.S. Air Force, further deepening her connection to the islands.
​
Through numerous trips with teams and tools, what began as outreach became much more—relationships with local churches and believers have grown into a true family in faith. The mission has included building a church, establishing a seminary and a school, and securing a van to support these ministries; all with a steadfast commitment to God’s purpose. The heart of the ministry is to make disciples who, in turn, make disciples. If you or your church has an interest in serving the people of the Bahamas please contact Pastor Bill Tweeddale by email at:
