Salt Lake City is a major metropolitan area packed with one million people-- prosperous and needy, religious and irreligious, young and old, international and domestic--searching for hope apart from Jesus. Over the next few weeks, we'll be posting four videos that describe our hopes for Gospel Grace Church and the city. Read more about target area here.
Salt Lake City is the least churched metropolitan area of the country. On any given Sunday, only 2% of Salt Lakers are in an evangelical church, and the gospel luminance is only 1 church for every 10,000 people. Read more about target area here.
These core values safeguard our mission. They keep us focused on the path to which God has called us. We understand that our values are steps on our journey, and not the destination. Therefore, we commit to the continual improvement of our application of these safeguards. Read more about our core values here.
Over the last year, God has been moving individually and yet similarly in all four of our families. He began poking at our comfort zones and working on our hearts about steps of faith. We have been serving in our current ministries for the last 7-10 years. Through different friends and ministry connections, we began to talk and pray about mission-minded church planting. We took a survey trip together to Salt Lake City. God ignited incredible unity of vision and mission in our hearts! We believe that God has brought us all together "for such a time as this." The more we have sought God's will, the more we believed we must take what God has taught us over the last decade and share it with people who do not have access to it.
