Montrose Community Church

 

          Montrose Community Church (MCC) exists to share the message of God's salvation, nurture believers in their walk with the Lord, and offer opportunities of fellowship to provide strength and support. MCC's beginnings can be traced to the post-flood years of 1936-1937 when the present church building was dedicated by Aimee Semple McPherson, the well-known pastor of Angeles Temple in Los Angeles.

 

Pastoral Appointments:

 

1936 - 1940            Wayne Brown.
1940 -1941             Evan Adams
1941 - 1946             Lester Sund
1947 - 1979             Charles Svendsen

 

         Pastor Svendsen's faithful tenure saw a lot of ministry, organization and growth. The church was a prominent feature during Fuller Seminary's formative years and many of its faculty members were occasional ministers in the pulpit.
