Lutheran Church Extension Fund (LCEF) Investors
I personally thank you for having invested in LCEF. By investing in LCEF you are assured that the funds will be loaned to LCMS congregations to build churches, schools and other church related buildings. Also loans are made to meet needs of LCMS church workers. Investments in banks, stocks, bonds, etc are used for numerous secular purposes, maybe even financing a casino. I have one question, have you designated a beneficiary's for your LCEF investment? If not you should do so as soon as possible. Including Mountain View as a beneficiary for a portion of your investment would be a great idea. If you have any question, please contact me, Evert Mueller, LCEF representative, at 480-986-1449.

What is an "Associate Member"?
Many winter visitors are active members in their home congregation "up north". For those who are attending here 3 or more months, we offer "associate membership". You do not have to transfer from your home church. Associate members may vote in meetings, have a record kept of contributions, receive monthly newsletters, and in all other ways be considered a member of Mountain View.
* * * * * * NOTICE: Everyone is welcome to attend and listen in on the monthly Council Meeting. This is a good way to know what is happening in YOUR church. The Council meets the second Thursday of the month at 6 p.m.
