Sunday Morning Services:  8:30 am & 10:30 am.   

Have you ever been involved in a good old fashion church fight?  They are not fun.  It seems like Christians should always get along, but we don’t.  In fact, Christians have been disagreeing from the start of the church.  In our passage this week, from Acts 15, we’ll explore three ways how the early church resolved their conflicts.   These steps to conflict resolution will also work in other relationships.  Be sure to invite your family, friends and co-workers to be our guests for this fun and informative sermon.

• Kid’s Hour 8:30 in CE Building, Room 2.
• Youth Sunday School at 9:40 am:  Jr High in Room 4/Sr High in Room 3.
• Sunday School (Preschool-5^th Grade) at 10:30 in the CE Building.
• Prayer Meeting at 5:30 pm in the Sanctuary.
• Sr. High -- Riptide – not meeting tonight.  
• Jr. High – Pipeline – Wednesday at 5:00-7:00 pm at the Padhi’s home.

We are glad you found our website so you can learn more about who we are and the impact God wants to have in your life.

We are a church that is committed following Jesus Christ and relying on Him for both forgiveness and grace. Our mission statement will give you a good sense of who we are and who we hope to become:

This website will give you a taste of what God is doing around our church. In many ways this website represents our faith, we are living fully for God today but we know we still have a long way to go. So, if you cannot find the information you need on this website, please do not hesitate to call the church for more information.

We are glad you found us online.

We have a place for you here. I invite you into active involvement in our Monte Vista Family. Our worship services offer a wide variety of music seeking to reflect some of the variety in God’s own creation. The various styles of contemporary and classical Christian music are all part of the music of the weekly worship services. Our Children’s Ministry is committed to helping children grow in a deeper relationship with Christ through a creative “rotation” model every Sunday morning. Our youth program seeks to creatively interact with teenagers so that they feel loved by all while deepening their own relationship with Christ. We provide a myriad of unique opportunities for adults of all ages to learn, grow and participate in Christ-centered ministry.

I am grateful for the privilege of welcoming you and encouraging you to let us help you become a part of this family.

Take care and God bless,

Pastor Tom
