Get to know Us
Centered on the Gospel. Growing in Grace. Following Jesus Together.
At Mountain View, you’ll find a community of loving, Gospel-centered people. We are all in process, sometimes a little messy, but always real and always finding our center in the grace of Jesus. The heartbeat of our community is sharing that Good News through worship, prayer, Bible study, service, and everyday life.
We’d love to have you join us!
First time visitor?
What to Expect
Whether you’ve been in church your whole life, have never attended before, or are returning after time away, our desire is for you to feel welcomed, accepted, and at home from the moment you arrive. Here’s what you can expect:
- A relaxed and welcoming atmosphere
- Meaningful contemporary worship
- Expository, Bible-centered preaching
- Friendly people who are glad you’re here
- Coffee before the service
- Family style service where all ages can worship together
FELLOWSHIP TIME
After the church service we enjoy a small meal or light snacks and fellowship time downstairs. There’s a sign-up sheet to bring snacks for everyone. It’s a relaxing time to get better connected with everyone. The kids can play on the lawn and playground at the community center.
Families Welcome
Kids at MVBC
Helping kids grow in faith while supporting parents every step of the way.
For babies & preschoolers, elementary children, & middle schoolers.
Whether in the nursery, Sunday School, or the worship service, children are welcomed, valued, and encouraged to grow in their faith. We provide safe, age-appropriate environments and practical resources that help kids engage with God’s Word while worshiping alongside their church family.
Giving
Each one must do just as he has purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. 2 Corinthians 9:7
We do not take a traditional offering during our worship services. Instead, our regular attenders are encouraged to place their tithes and offerings in a Giving Basket that’s placed in the back on the Welcome Table sometime during the morning. In this way, our giving is private and there are no awkward times of “passing the plates” during our worship meetings.
Online giving can also be done easily through this link.
Communion
For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes. 1 Corinthians 11:26
Two sacred activities (called ordinances) were given to the New Testament church: baptism and communion. We share in Communion as part of our worship to the Lord multiple times a month.
All are welcome to partake in Communion with the understanding that it is a somber remembrance of Christ’s death and resurrection to cover our sins (spiritual mistakes) and shared as renewal of our commitment to live for Him because He gave His life for us.
