About Virtual Marketing Ventures
We exist to train and equip churches and nonprofits to use AI practically and responsibly — with hands-on skills, ethical clarity, and the strategy and policy your organization needs to fulfill its mission with confidence.
Our Story
Virtual Marketing Ventures LLC was founded out of a simple observation: AI is reshaping how churches and nonprofits serve, communicate, and lead — but many pastors and ministry leaders feel unprepared to use it well or responsibly.
We saw organizations excited about AI's potential but unsure how to use it practically. We saw teams worried about accuracy, bias, privacy, and copyright. We saw leaders who wanted clear policies but didn't know where to start.
That's why we created VMV. We believe AI is a tool — one that, when used wisely and ethically, can amplify the work of the church and extend the reach of your mission. But it shouldn't be a burden, and it shouldn't pull leaders away from their calling.
Our mission is to make AI training accessible, practical, and responsible for churches and nonprofits of all sizes.

Meet Rev. Frank Sarpong
Founder & Lead AI Strategist
Rev. Frank Sarpong is an AI strategist, technology consultant, and ministry leader helping churches and nonprofits use artificial intelligence to save time, strengthen operations, expand their digital reach, and advance their mission.
He brings a rare combination of pastoral heart and technical expertise. As a pastor watching technology reshape ministry, he saw firsthand how AI could help — and how confusing and risky it could feel for church and nonprofit leaders without technical backgrounds.
That experience led him to pair his pastoral calling with practical expertise in AI tools, ethics, policy, and digital strategy. Today, Frank partners with churches, ministries, and nonprofits across Connecticut and around the world to use AI confidently and responsibly — without losing sight of their mission.
"My goal is simple: to help you use AI with confidence and integrity, so you can focus on the people and mission God has entrusted to you."
Our Faith-Informed Approach to AI
We believe that AI is a tool, not a replacement for authentic ministry, discernment, or human care. Our approach is rooted in the conviction that technology should serve your mission — not distract from it or compromise your integrity.
Everything we do is filtered through a lens of stewardship, ethics, and purpose. We're not chasing trends for the sake of being trendy. We're helping you use AI in ways that are honest, responsible, and genuinely useful — so you can connect with people and advance your mission with credibility.
Technology changes. The mission doesn't.
