The Basics
Our Church
When you visit Mt. Scott Church you can expect to be greeted by caring people who want you to feel at home no matter what your previous experience may be with church. In the building you will find people a lot like you who come together to learn, grow, and share the struggles and joys of life with each other.
The worship time usually lasts about an hour and 15 minutes. Here you will experience joyful music that helps us give praise to God, a message that presents truth from the Bible in a way that makes it useful and challenging, and friendly community. Our Lead Pastor, Bob Christensen, communicates in a way that calls us to respond to the love and grace of God.
Hearing aid assistance is available during our worship service. Ushers will be happy to help you.

For Children
We know that as a parent you need be sure that your children are in a SAFE learning environment. And we know that your children are looking for a FUN place to learn.
Our Nursery is a clean, inviting and safe environment staffed with qualified volunteers who will love and care for your child.
Our Pre-school Program is for children 18 months-kindergarten. Our cheery and colorful rooms are a welcome environment for children, and our volunteers are committed to touching lives in a way that says “God loves you, and so do we.”
We are very concerned for the safety of children at Mt. Scott, and use a pager system for nursery-pre-school classes to notify parents of needs their children may have, as well as a security measure in releasing children at the end of class.
Grade School kids are discipled in small group classes at the 9:00 am hour, with a focus on Bible study and scripture memorization.
Kids Church is a program for 1st-6th grade boys and girls at the 10:15 am service. Our goal is to present God’s Word in fun and experiential ways. Children, three years old – 6th grade enjoy the first 45 minutes of our worship service with their families, and then are dismissed to their classes.
