Out of loving concern for the health and safety of all those who worship at Christ the Vine, we are taking precautions to minimize the spread of COVID-19 in our community. For the near future, all on-site gatherings have been postponed. We encourage all of our members to practice good social distancing in their own lives. If possible, stay at home when reasonable. Please keep in your prayers all those who are affected by the ongoing pandemic. No matter what, we remember that nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Our worship of God does not stop! Instead, CTV is going to stream our worship services. Each Sunday, you are invited to tune into our Facebook Livestream. Below are links that should be helpful to help you facilitate worshp at home:

About Our Pastor
Pastor Tony Pflughoeft began serving as pastor at Christ the Vine in July 2022. Although he was born in El Paso, TX, he grew up in a suburb of Milwaukee, WI. He earned his B.A. with an emphasis in Classical Biblical languages from Martin Luther College in New Ulm, MN, and received his M.Div. from Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary in Mequon, WI in 2022. As part of his preparation, he spent a year as a Vicar (Pastoral Intern) at Hope Lutheran Church in Toronto, ON, Canada.
Pastor Pflughoeft married his wife, Erin, in December of 2018, and God has blessed them with three children.
Pastor Pflughoeft is passionate about proclaiming the love of Jesus to the people of Christ the Vine and the Greater Temecula area. In his personal time, he enjoys listening to podcasts, exploring the city, and watching sports.
