Happy Sabbath Our Dear Church Family!
Prayer, the simple act of calling out to God our father, is our greatest tool. It is our greatest defense and shield, and our greatest weapon.
In these times of great turmoil, of great loss and division, let’s use that great powerful tool to comfort us and help us in this time of heartache.
This last week we have had the privilege to pray together as a union with the PUC (Pacific Union Conference) 10 Day Revival. It was powerful to be on a zoom with almost 300 households praying. What an experience.
Tonight at 11:30 PST the General Conference will do a worldwide 24-hour Prayer-a-thon. Join this zoom whenever your available starting tonight, to pray with your Adventist family.
24 Hours! Ending the 17th 11:30 pm PST

How to attend church in person
We can only allow 50 people to be present. Please remind friends and family that registration with Dr. Mary Greene is required in order to attend this service (702) 592-7572.
Please do not register and then not attend. This keeps other people from attending that might have otherwise been able to go! The sanctuary service is live broadcast on Facebook and also now on our church website www.come2mountainview.org. It is also seen on YouTube after the service is over.
Other Announcements
Tithe and Offerings – "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7 (NIV)
Even though our Annual Sacrifice Offering giving window is up, it is never too late to catch up or give extra to the General Fund. It takes approximately $19,000 a month to meet our ministerial and billing needs. We have only averaged $14,000 a month for this year. Please consider what you can do.
Tithe envelopes have been placed at the church near the mailbox.
Three ways to give:
- AdventistGiving.com
- Check to: Mountain View Church 1950 S. Rainbow Blvd #103-52, Las Vegas, NV 89146
- or better yet, attend church in person and place your tithe and General Fund offerings in the offering boxes as you leave the service.
