MONTE VISTA YOUTH MINISTRIES
The
world is finished with religion and
spirituality that does nothing to
change the way people
actually live. And rightly so, I
believe God is too. We seek true religion,
the true faith that calls us to
explore the God of the universe
together and truly
live out the story that
God has given us. We do this by
becoming wholly committed followers
of Jesus Christ (the Biblical word
for this is
discipleship). An
important part of becoming a
disciple is loving people. Everyone
is welcome to seek what it
means to live God's story with us.
We strive to be honest with
ourselves and with those around us
and to meet everyone where they are.
We are all seeking and growing, so
we embrace all fellow travelers, no
matter where they are in their story
of how God finds them, (regardless
of how they look, smell, think, act,
etc.) and serve them as Christ
would. If we do this, then
Christ will be present, loving the
world through us. Living the story
has changed our lives, and it can
change yours too, giving you a new
identity and hope of true, eternal
life.
If you are
interested in learning more about
how we seek to do this you can
explore the rest of our site or feel
free to contact us by phone at 602-944-5484. I hope
you like what you discover.

F.U.E.L
 Wednesday's
from 7-8:30 pm in the Teen Room.
At FUEL we seek to create a safe
place where teens sense that they
belong and are free to ask tough
life questions. It's basically an
introduction to what it really means
to be a Christian.
CAMPS AND RETREATS
Planned at various
times throughout the year to provide
spiritual and social growth. An
opportunity to get away, bond with
others, and reflect on important
issues.
DISCIPLESHIP
As
teens desire
spiritual growth they are offered
"one on one" discussion and study
with a mature believer. This
provides tremendous spiritual growth
and the building of friendships.
MINISTRY OF SERVICE
 Various
opportunities are provided for teens
to minister to others. We believe
this builds solid Christians and
citizens. |
