| The
original vision for a new church in Clovis came from the church
planting board of the Mennonite Brethren Church. The board
called Fred and Esther Leonard to pioneer the establishment
of this new church in the summer of 1993. By the fall of that
year Mountain View Community Church (MVCC) with Pastor Fred
and Esther Leonard had a core group of 7 other adults.
After
9 months of “incubation” the church was “born”
on May 1, 1994. The church had been meeting at Clovis High until
May 8, 2005. The church currently ministers to between 800 and
900 individuals each weekend and now resides at its permanent home
on Ashlan and Fowler.
We are affiliated with the U.S. Conference of
Mennonite Brethren Churches (www.usmb.org)
and the Pacific District of Mennonite Brethren Churches (www.pdcmbc.org).
