Serving One Another
A "church" is a group of believers committed to the Lord and each other. It is not the corporation, the "ministry professionals," or the Sunday morning event. We want our primary ministry to be person-to-person throughout the week, not just people anonymously attending weekend events.


Prayer & Care Ministry
Craig Jacobs handles the prayer ministry at MountainView by leading our praise and prayer time on Sunday mornings. Michelle Jacobs uses email and telephone to encourage people during the week and get information about special needs to the appropriate people. You can contact Craig via email with any prayer requests or questions.

In the middle of the week, Liam Flett breaks up the busyness and distractions of our lives by sending out the praises and prayer requests from previous Sunday, plus any updates or additional requests, on email. Beneath those items, he includes notices of upcoming events for the week and month. If you have any prayer requests that you would like for Liam to include in the mid-week reminder, please send them to him via email.

Music Ministry
Jacques Ford and Bjorn Jacobs, who are both Bible college graduates, are our two key musicians and are accompanied by other vocalists in leading our worship times together.

Children's Church
Sue Meyers and Bronwyn Hutchinson coordinate a number of teachers who provide songs, activities and crafts, and teach God's Word to the kids during the morning message.

Audio-Video Ministry
Richard and Elmari Fernandes transport, set up, operate and take down all sound and video equipment for our worship times each week. This is a lot of wires and a lot of work.

Tea/Coffee Ministry
Fellowship after our worship times together is an integral part of our meetings as a church. Gavin and Debbie Carter provide and set up the tea, coffee, and other goodies each week for these special times.

Meals Ministry
Dr. Mandy Thomson coordinates the provision of meals for those who have been sick, in hospital, had a baby, moved residences, or otherwise could use the help of the church in providing meals.

Primary Youth - Fridays
Brent and Sue Meyers and Gavin and Hayley DeHaas lead the youth every other Friday evening where the kids have games, contests, a snack, and a good time learning God's Word.

Young Adults - Fridays
Jacques Ford, Chad Hutchinson, Brad and Tanya Wilson, and Richard and Elmari Fernandes oversee the gathering of teens and young adults every other Friday night for fellowship, games, activities, and a Bible study.

Cards Ministry
Margaret Quayle has a list of everyone's birthdays and makes sure everyone feels special by providing them with a card on their week.

Special Events
We have special fun days together as a church, and sometimes we join other churches for a volleyball tournament or a potjieskos competition, and Wayne Hurley is the one who makes all of the arrangements and gets people involved.

Church Newsletter
Brian and Tami Roos put together a quarterly newsletter giving events and missions updates as well as challenging us from God's Word.

We try to keep Sunday, Monday, and Saturday evenings free for sanity and time with family. Still, we pack a lot into a week, with studies for men, ladies, couples, and teens.
