About Us

Vine University America is an institution ordained by God to raise an end-time Jesus Army. 
 
We are called to teach the nations about the KNOWLEDGE of the GLORY of the LORD.
 
Though Vine University America just started in year 2023, we have been in existence for more than four decades as a ministry. We have devoted most  of our time and resource to raising men and women for the work of the ministry of our Lord. 
 
Our history spanned 40 years plus. 
In the year 1983, we  started as The Rolls Academy of Sacred Music. Later on, in 1988 we added Green Pastures Bible College in Kaduna, Nigeria. 
Both schools trained many great ministers of the Gospel in Nigeria and other nations across the world. 
 
The schools later became International Worship College in 1988 and by the help of God, we are now a full fledged On-Line Christian University that offers Associate, Bachelors, Masters and Doctorate Degrees in Christian education. 
 
We invite you to enroll in the Vine University America today. 
 
Together we can make the world a better place for everyone. 
 
 

Our Vision

Our vision is driven by the three scriptures below.

Habakkuk 2:14
For the earth will be filled with the KNOWLEDGE of the GLORY of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.

Isaiah 59:19-21

“So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.

And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.

As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.”

John 4:23-24

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”
