Mount Olivet Youth are hosting the annual May Plant Sale fundraiser with beautiful hanging baskets and patio planters from Broman’s Greenhouse in Rogers, MN. Proceeds from the plant sale support youth and adult leaders going to Denver, Colorado for a service learning trip in July 2026. Place orders by Sunday, April 20. Thank you for your support of Mount Olivet youth and adult leaders! Make an order here. 

On April 19 from 12pm to 3pm, Mount Olivet will be hosting an EV car show as part of the national Drive Electric Earth Month event series across the nation. Details of that event and optional registration can be found  here: https://driveelectricearthmonth.org/event?eventid=5203. There will be a number of EV owners there to answer questions, as well as dealers offering test drives of the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Bolt or Equinox, an electric motorcycle dealer, and possibly, an electric school bus used in the Osseo school district.

Join us Sunday, April 19 for one worship service at 10:00am, followed by a celebration brunch. We will mark Mount Olivet becoming a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) congregation. This means we openly affirm and welcome people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions into the full life of the church. This is not just a statement, but a commitment to keep growing as a community of belonging, living out Christ’s love with openness, courage, and justice. Come worship. Come celebrate.

You are invited to celebrate Easter at Mount Olivet at 10:45am in the Sanctuary on April 5.

March 29

2:00pm-4:30pm

State Capitol

On Palm Sunday, March 29, Mount Olivet will be joining thousands of siblings in Christ in a march and rally for justice and love where we will boldly proclaim what we are all about as followers of Jesus: loving our neighbor by feeding the hungry, caring for the sick, and welcoming the neighbor. Join this event after our 10:00am worship that day. We will share a light lunch and then take our palms to the Capitol for amazing music, inspiring messages, and prayer! Invite a friend or neighbor by sharing a postcard from the welcome area! Please let us know if you can come by registering HERE. Learn more about “Reclaiming Christianity in the Public Square” at www.palmsunday2026.com

You are invited to help create Mount Olivet’s Easter Garden by donating Easter flowers in honor or memory of someone you love. These flowers will help fill our space with beauty as we celebrate the joy of the resurrection. This year, we will have two photo areas on Easter morning. In the Welcome Area, live plants will form an arched frame for photos, and in the Sanctuary, a second photo space with silk flowers will be arranged beside the large wooden cross. This allows those with plant sensitivities or allergies to participate comfortably. Thank you for helping us create a vibrant and welcoming Easter celebration!

The winter storm warning has recently been upgraded to a blizzard. The safety and well-being of our members, friends, guests, and staff is very important to us, and we have made the decision to cancel in person worship tomorrow, March 15, along with any other church activities on the calendar.

 Our pastors and music director will lead us in a Zoom worship service at 10AM (from each of their homes), so we can still come together in community. A link for that service will be sent to members via email and text. Stay safe and warm!

Didn’t get the Zoom link? Email contact@moply.org, and the link will be sent to you by 10am Sunday morning.

Come worship at Mount Olivet as our young people lead us in story, word, music and prayers on Sunday, March 8 at 10am and Wednesday, March 11 at 6:15pm.

Following Youth Led Worship on Sunday, March 8, come for a tasty pancake brunch and intergenerational community! Proceeds from the event will support students attending the Denver Service & Learn trip this summer. To help us plan for food, please RSVP here by March 5.

Want to help thank our youth for the ways that they’ve been showing up this year? Sign up to volunteer with brunch in the link below.

Sunday, January 18 Mount Olivet welcomes King Wilke's Dream for a bluegrass service at both the 9am and 10:45am services.

Bluegrass music is a genre of American roots music emerging from the Appalachian region in the 1940s. It is a unique blend of old-time mountain music, gospel, blues, and Celtic traditions. This high energy music provides a meaningful and energetic framework for worship.
