Our Congregation

In 1903, Mennonites began moving into the Flathead Valley. By 1913 a church was formally organized as Mountain View Amish Mennonite Church. In those days the church consisted of conservative people who wished to remain separate from society. Much has changed within the past 100 years. The Amish designation was dropped. The church involved itself heavily with the community. Presently the congregation is affiliated with the Pacific Northwest Mennonite Conference of Mennonite Church USA and includes many people from a variety of denominational backgrounds. The video at left, made for our congregation’s 100th anniversary in 2013, provides a glimpse into our church’s activities in our community.
