Vision and Values  

Vision

Growing True Community.
Summitview Community Church is a nondenominational, biblically-based, Christian church. Our church is not a building, but people committed to one another, united in the belief that God has given us a new life and a new future through our shared relationship with Jesus Christ. We are a spiritual family, pursuing deep, meaningful relationships through the love God has for everyone.

  • Discipleship Teams: These are an essential part of Summitview's community. These small groups, made up of 5 to 15 people, meet weekly in homes, with a focus on developing relationships, exploring the Bible, and prayer. You are always welcome to become part of this vital dimension of our church life.

Producing a Steady Stream of Maturing Disciples

  • Membership: We believe that God is honored and individuals are blessed by making a commitment to their local church. If you are interested in membership at Summitview, watch for our Membership Class,  designed to familiarize people with the beauty of Christianity and our vision as a church. The Discovery class is offered several times throughout the year.
  • Seminars: We provide a variety of seminars throughout the year including Evangelism Training, Pre-marriage Counseling (To Have and To Hold), and Women's Ministry. Our goal with these seminars is to encourage people down a continuing path in their relationship and commitment to Christ.
  • Leadership Development: Our leadership development takes place mainly within the context of Discipleship Team leadership. The Leadership Training Class (LTC) is designed to equip and train Discipleship Team leaders. 

Transforming the Culture of Fort Collins
We believe that the message of God's redemption should do more than affect the individual; it should transform the culture for good. We desire for our church to be a driving force to meet needs and bring the love of God to our city.


Multiplying Great Commission Churches
We believe that the church is the best way to mobilize the message of God's love and free gift of Christ. Our vision is to continue to plant churches in the U.S. and beyond to bring the tranforming power of Christ to the whole world.
