CV, formerly known as Christian Vision, is a large international Christian ministry based in the United Kingdom, established in 1988. CV was founded by Lord Edmiston, with a vision to reach one billion people around the globe, introduce them to Jesus, and encourage them to become His true followers.

'Touch-a-Billion' and 'Impact-a-Nation' are CV's two strategies that all charity activities fall into.

'Touch-a-Billion' focuses on using the most effective media platforms to introduce people to Jesus. Their main forms of communication include a mobile application, broadcast radio, social media, and internet media. One of these projects is yesHEis, a mobile app that provides Christians with videos they can use to easily share their faith with their friends.[1]

‘Impact-a-Nation’ projects contribute to CV’s vision through activities such as church pioneering and training local leaders with the intention of making a positive impact to society.[2]

CV is based at Coleshill, Warwickshire, but has offices throughout Europe, CIS, Africa, North America, Latin America, and Asia Pacific.

It is registered charity under English law and, in 2007, had an endowment of £200 million, making it one of the 100 largest charities in the UK.[3]
