Faith Elevated Mission Camp
A Christian Response to the Gospel Need in Utah.
Utah has tremendous need for the Gospel. Faith Elevated is our response toward that need by strengthening and establishing a healthy church in every town in Utah.

Utah is 68.5% Mormon, or Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS), and has fewer Biblical Christians than anywhere else in the western hemisphere of the world. There are still numerous towns and cities in Utah that remain without a single Biblical Christian Church of any denomination.
Faith Elevated it a week-long mission bootcamp for high-school students and adults from across the country. We want to equip you with practical ways to share Biblical Truth, in love, in areas of apologetics, evangelism, discipleship, and church planting.
The Wasatch Front is a beautiful and rugged mountain range with peaks nearing 12,000 ft. The Front creates the east boundary to both Utah and Salt Lake counties. The area is a mecca for outdoor sporting.
Home to more than 700,000 people and growing, Utah County is an epicenter of tech and economic activity seeing some of the fastest urban growth in the country. Utah County starts just 25 miles south of Salt Lake City.
Utah County is the de facto home base for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Brigham Young University in Provo, and the church's largest Missionary Training Center.
In Utah County, there are only 25 Biblically based churches. Meanwhile, the LDS church density is extremely high, with an average of 26 LDS churches for every 10,000 people.
Utah is known as the Beehive State which is emblematic of local's industries hard work.
Colonized by Mormon settlers in 1847; the area was then part of Mexico. By 1896 Utah was admitted to statehood, as the 45th state, after several ideological and territorial struggles with the federal government.
The desire of Faith Elevated is to bring in missionary-minded people and educate them on the unique needs and difficulties of ministering in Utah, to a largely "unchurched" demographic.
To better understand Utah's culture, the teams will have opportunities to interact with LDS Missionaries and other community members.
The visiting teams will have the opportunity to visit several prominent landmarks where there will learn about Utah's unique culture and history. The landmarks include Temple Square in Salt Lake City, the business headquarters of the LDS church.
By the time a team or individual leaves Utah, we hope that they have developed a deeper passion for missions and are aware of the needs in Utah.
We want to equip and empower visitors in areas of apologetics and evangelism specific to Utah's demographic; doing so with love and grace for Utah's people.
Faith Elevated wants to see the local Christian communities, ministries, and churches strengthened, encouraged, and supported.
Join us for a week of exciting growth and new challenging experiences. Come help us as we saturate Utah with the Gospel.
