Worship

Glorifying God is our greatest goal in life and we do that both personally and publicaly.   On Sundays, we value both traditional hymns and newer expressions of contemporary praise music.  Music on Sundays is led by our worship team.  We meet for practice on Wednesdays from  6:45 p.m.–8 p.m.  Vocal singers and instrumentalists are welcome to join us!

Prayer

Prayer creates personal connection with God.  We desire to build a culture of prayer and seeking God at Mount Olivet.  Our prayer team meets on Wednesdays from 6 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. to pray for the week’s prayer requests shared on Sunday.  We know God hears our prayers and wants to answer our prayers by giving grace through trials and also to do extraordinary things in people’s lives.

Following the Sunday worship service, prayer team members are available in the front of the sanctuary to pray for any need.

Prayer requests can also be emailed to the church or by leaving a message on the church phone.  They will be shared with the prayer team.  Contact us at office@mtolivetchurch.org or at (513) 988-0422.  For urgent needs call the pastor at (513) 839-0546.
