A Little More About Us

  

The Officers and Board of Directors are all incredibly special to Mountain Home. Each one has their personal ties to Brother Smith (Founder of Mountain Home). Each one of them is following in his footsteps in their own way, in service to our Lord as well as to our fellow brothers and sisters. Each officer and board member has seemingly been blessed with individual skills that can deeply benefit the operations. With the family growing, we are pleased to be able to share it and further our Father, Grandfather, Friend, and Brother’s memory and work.


Just like many of you, Mountain Home has experienced a remarkably interesting 2020. We have been blessed with our health therefore we have been busy using the energy and time to work on the property. Generous donors, volunteers, and our board members have spent most of the year remodeling rooms and restoring our historic buildings. The transformations that are taking place are more than what we ever could have hoped for! We have made amazing strides, but we still have more work to go. Keep in touch with us to see what is new at Mountain Home Desert Retreat, there is much more to come.


We would like to especially thank Jose, Jaime, and Mario for being absolute angels. These guys have been working tirelessly, donating their time, money, and labor. They have done everything from fixing terribly old roofs to filling in the cracks on our stone buildings. We would not be this far along without them.


Sending prayers and love to all of you during this stressful year. Mountain Home is open to small groups and individuals. We are following all state guidelines regarding covid-19. Stay and pray, it's good for the soul.

Covid-19 Response First and foremost, we want everyone to stay as safe and healthy as possible. Here at Mountain Home Desert Retreat, we have been following California and Los Angeles County guidelines. Currently, we are allowing small groups to use our facilities and stay as guests. Mountain Home Desert Retreat is located on 40 acres so there is plenty of room for small groups or film crews. We do ask that all groups and individuals wear a mask and stay six feet apart while using the Chapel or Tabernacle. Please contact us for more information.
