Searching for a church can be an uncomfortable experience even if you have been a church attender for years or looking for the first time. I tell my wife Saundra not to try to explain the service but just tell the people to "Come and see. I think you will be pleasantly surprised." Another way I would describe the Tehachapi Mountain Vineyard (TMV) is 'real, relevant and relaxed.' People seem to be having a genuinely good time, the message is practical for life today and the atmosphere is casual. Starbucks coffee and muffins. A pretty good start. A final note about the TMV - everyone is important. Imagine that, a church where all are welcome. It's worth checking out! My hope is that you will be pleasantly surprised, Barry Galloway Pastor, TMV
