Mountain Vista Baptist – Ministries for all ages, from infants through adults.

Welcome to Mountain Vista Baptist Church’s Live Stream!

During the Covid-19 reopen time we will be having in person services on Sundays at 9 and 11am.

Welcome to Mountain Vista Baptist Church!

Founded here in Carson City in 2018 by the merging of First Baptist Church (1954) and Capital Baptist Church (1978). We are a family fellowship, a safe place, where many generations interact, share, and learn from each other! Whether you are a Christ-follower or just someone curious about the faith, we invite you to come and be a part!

It is our desire to build up followers of Christ, exalt the Lord, share Christ and serve others, all for the glory of Christ and for our joy! We seek to accomplish this through biblical preaching and teaching, Christ-centered worship and fellowship, intentional evangelism and discipleship, worldwide missions and God-honoring service.
Mountain Vista is all about leading people into a growing relationship with God through Christ. We’re passionate about becoming an ever-growing, grace-driven community centered in Christ, focused on others, and committed to living out the Gospel. We want to see individuals and the entire Carson region experience salvation through Jesus Christ and be transformed by His love, service, humility and forgiveness.
If you’re considering joining us for a service, you will find a place where you are warmly welcomed and feel at home, even if you’ve never been to church before!
Thank you for checking us out!
We love it here and think you will, too!

Our Values

The values of a church shape what it does and who it is. Mountain Vista is deeply committed to the eternal truths of the Christian faith. While we realize we can’t tell you everything we believe in a few paragraphs, these are our core beliefs, the Biblical Values that guide all we are and do.

Following God's Leadership

If anything we do comes outside of His leadership, it is worthless. We MUST constantly be seeking His guidance and direction.

Honoring Biblical Truth

We believe that the Bible is totally trustworthy and 100% true, and it’s teaching the catalyst for life-change in individual lives and in the church as a whole. The Bible presents a revolutionary message of hopelessness without Christ and life change when we turn our lives over to Him. This message wasn’t given to us merely to inform us, or to provide arguments for a particular belief or position but to change us. We don’t assume everyone believes, or even knows the Bible, but we do assume everyone who comes through our doors is open to exploring it.

Sharing Christ with Others

The greatest gift we can give another human being is what God has extended to us in unlimited measure, His Love. People come to Christ and to church because of the consistent encouragement of a trusted friend. The life of a Christ-follower is about becoming more like Christ and thus investing in the lives of those who are far from God, actively seeking them out and building relationships in a welcoming, accepting manner and sharing the gospel message with them.

Building Authentic Community

Mountain Vista is committed to extending grace and acceptance to all who come and to offer the joy of belonging, the delight of being known and loved, and the opportunity to give and share our lives with others. We aren’t interested in being a place where a lot of people get together for an inspiring service but never move beyond the casual, arm’s distance relationships of an auditorium. People who grow in their relationship with God also grow by developing authentic friendships with each other, moving beyond the Sunday morning sanctuary into small groups and serving.

Living Generously

We believe God is generous. He gives freely, fully, graciously and without measure. He is a giver, not a taker. Generosity means living our life with our hands open, generously giving away the time, talent, treasure God has so graciously entrusted to us. Generous living is about creating margin in our lives so we can give more of our lives away in Jesus name especially to those most in need. At Mountain Vista we believe we are never more mature than when we give, love or serve.

Importance of Family

Just like the Church, God created the Family to proclaim His love, salvation and the beauty of the Gospel as a Family Unit. Regardless of your marital status and stage in life, we seek to grow and encourage each person where Christ has them as men, women, children, grandparents, empty-nesters, widows and orphans.
