__TOC__
The Majestic View Mennonite Church in Greeley, [[Colorado (USA)|Colorado]], USA was established in 1967. The congregation started when Gerald Mininger, a [[Church of God in Christ, Mennonite (CGC)|Church of God in Christ, Mennonite]] minister, inspired a number of families from [[Winton Church of God in Christ, Mennonite Church (Winton, California, USA)|Winton]], [[California (USA)|California]] and other places to explore Greeley as a new settlement. In addition to farming opportunities, a number of small industries offered opportunities.

Sunday school began in homes. In March 1968 the congregation organized and rented a building for its services. In July 1969 the congregation purchased a former Lutheran church building on the corner of 4th Avenue and 11th Street. By 1972 it became necessary to add Sunday school rooms and a nursery.

The congregation underwent theological controversy in the 1970s and withdrew from the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite. In about 1978 it joined the [[Rocky Mountain Mennonite Conference (Mennonite Church)|Rocky Mountain Conference]] of the [[Mennonite Church (MC)]]. It soon began conversations with the [[Living Water Fellowship (Greeley, Colorado, USA)|Mennonite Church of Greeley]], also a member of the Rocky Mountain Conference, about a potential merger. In 1983 the congregations merged as the Greeley Mennonite Church, using the former Majestic View Mennonite Church building.
