The third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting. Amen.

Also, congratulations for being Mt. View’s recipient of the Presbytery of Grand Canyon Senior Service Award on Thursday, March 26. Jeremy’s explanation of his artwork… “If you had been there and had seen the crowd going by on Palm Sunday, what would you think was happening? Catching a glimpse through waving palm branches of a man on a donkey, hoping for someone to drive out the Romans, would you have had any idea of a larger purpose? Perhaps there is a lesson here about how truth is revealed to us over time.” This series showcases musicians of The Phoenix Symphony : 4th Monday of the month from 10:00 to 11:15 am : Mountain View Presbyterian Church Sanctuary : FREE, but donations are welcome.

New Adult Education Course Join our Pastors for 6 Wednesday evenings beginning April 8th as we examine John Ortberg’s book Soul Keeping. When is the last time you thought about the state of your soul? The health of your soul isn’t just a matter of saved or unsaved. It’s the hinge on which the rest of your life hangs. It’s the difference between deep, satisfied spirituality and a restless, dispassionate faith. In an age of materialism and consumerism that tries to buy its way to happiness, many souls are starved and unhealthy, unsatisfied by false promises of status and wealth. We’ve neglected this eternal part of ourselves, focusing instead on the temporal concerns of the world—and not without consequence. - MT.
