What is the Hope Team?
Our Hope Team is made up of people at Mountain West who use their gifts and passions to serve Jesus. At Mountain West, there will always be a place for you to serve - from creating a welcoming environment on our First Impressions team, teaching our kids what it means to follow Jesus in MW Kids, to bringing a video experience to our online viewers on our production team. People encounter the love of God when we serve.
