Friends, let's be together, one way or the other!  

​

The Mission of Mountainview: To Provide Environments Where Anyone Can Encounter Jesus

 

This season has certainly given plenty of opportunities for that!

​

We are now gathering Sunday Mornings at 10 AM in the field at Mountainview.

​

The first thing I want to tell you: Jesus loves you and your family! Some of the biggest lessons we are learning from God in this time is 1) how important our individual families are and 2) how important the extended church family is. I want you to know that in recent conversations the Mountainview Board and I have made the commitment that the church service be geared toward every member of the church family, 0 - 100 years old. God is calling us to do "Simple Church" so families can be together in the service. Those leading the service, including the guy who gives the sermons, will be working hard to do it in a way that everyone, with a little flexing, can participate and receive. So, please bring the whole family, to the whole family of God.

​

​
