Outreach

LOCAL/REGIONAL OUTREACH

We believe we are called to represent Jesus and His Kingdom in our neighborhoods and cities. At Mountain View we do this by intentionally showing care and grace through acts of kindness as well as by sharing the Gospel to those we encounter. We know that our words and our lifestyle matter when it comes to the Gospel.
