Upcoming Events

At Mesa Verde UMC we're always up to something! For events where we need a head count, there is usually a sign-up sheet on the patio between services. If you can't make it then, just call the church office. They will be happy to put you in touch with the person in charge of that event. And if you need a ride, call the office, too. Chances are there's a church member who doesn't live too far from you. The church phone number is (714) 979-8234. We hope to see you there!
