Congregant Events

  • Check out the Offering of Letters/Bread for the World event from 8-30-26.
  • Listen to the YouTube recording of Therese Griffin’s story from the June 2, 2026, “Pride or Prejudice” Female Story Tellers event.
  • Our Church Chaplain, Deb Brandt, is now on board.  Reach out to Deb and/or Pastor Rachel Srubas through the church office contact information at the bottom of this webpage if you have a need for spiritual care.
  • Never underestimate the impact of your generosity. Read a grateful letter from a guest of the Cross Streets Community, where several of Mountain Shadows’ members volunteer to prepare and serve meals to folks who might otherwise go hungry. Thanks be to God for the opportunity to tangibly (and tastily!) convey Christ’s love) in the communities around our church.
  • Consider donating your excess citrus.  Iskashitaa Refugee Network, which is based at St. Mark’s Presbyterian Church, is currently collecting donations of fresh citrus. If you have an abundance of oranges, grapefruits and other citrus to give, bring bagged fruits to church any Sunday.  Dan Engeljohn will deliver them to Iskashitaa. (He can also tell you how to get involved in the food ministry at Cross Streets Community.)
  • View random Mountain Shadows event pictures.
  • View the posting for Community Presbyterian Church of San Manuel updates that contains links for the names included on the Tree of Life, and new items added to the MSPC campus from Community Presbyterian Church of San Manuel and included in the visual artistry page (i.e., cross and “Tree of Life” names).
  • Check out the latest book additions to the library, posted 8-30-26.
  • The Friendship Ministry webpage is available for review.
  • Read an enlightened message of hope.  The message was crafted by Christian leaders in Southern AZ, including our own pastor friends of Mountain Shadows — Rev. Rachel Srubas, Rev. Laura Munroe, Rev. Brad Munroe, and Rev. Jeff Dixon.  The letter was read during the 8-17-25 worship service.
  • See our Giving Initiatives page for ways in which you can make financial donations securely online, or other ways in which you can support the church through financial giving.  See the pics and link for electronically submitting your pledge to the Gifted & Giving campaign.   See Christian Generosity for more information about giving and our past campaigns.
  • Learn about the Borderlands Young Adult Volunteers (BYAV) program, a Presbyterian Church (USA)-affiliated, ecumenical community of people between ages 19 and 30, spending a year living in intentional Christian community and serving the local community through agency partners.  Annually, Mountain Shadows church takes up a special offering (payable to Mountain Shadows, with “BYAV” or “YAV” in the memo line) on Pentecost Sunday.  In addition, the Mission Ministry Team of Mountain Shadows provides financial support to the program.

  • For updates regarding our Memorial Garden and church members and friends that have passed into every-lasting life, check In Memoriam.
New columbarium (left side) — 6-20-25
  • Our Season of Lent began with a prayerful Ash Wednesday worship service on March 5 at 4:00 PM.  The offering received during this service was specific to helping fund the construction of a new columbarium in our church’s Memorial Garden.  A percentage of the offering will be used to strengthen the Columbarium Compassion Fund, which offsets ashes internment costs for people in economic need.
