About Our Community...
The Mt. Olive family has been at the current location since January 2005. God has indeed blessed us with a new beginning. With the move have come additional opportunities to Reach Out + Share Jesus. As with any change, location in our case, there are new opportunities. Our focus is on serving in our community as well as influencing others beyond our local in the name of Jesus. Some of the blessings are: an excellent Pre-School, a thriving youth program from ages 0 to high school, numerous Bible Class opportunities, and a music program that allows for the heart and soul to sing out. We are committed to mission – to getting outside of ourselves to reach the lives of those who need to hear the message of God’s love.
