INCREDIBLE BEAUTY - INCREDIBLE NEEDS

Utah is a wonderful place to visit and live! The Salt Lake City region has the youngest population in the U.S., the highest birthrate in the U.S. and the most educated adult workforce. Overall in Utah, 70% of the population are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons).

BMW missionaries have been planting churches in Utah and Idaho for nearly 50 years. Churches have been planted and released to local leadership in Brigham City, Kaysville, and Roy, Utah. There are ongoing church plants in Payson, Cedar City, Richfield, Provo, LaVerkin, Tremonton and Eden, Utah, and in Blackfoot and Montpelier, Idaho. These churches are also served by BMW personnel running KEYY Radio in Provo.

A NEW STRATEGY GAINING MOMENTUM

In July of 2000 when BMW missionary church planter Ron Thompson introduced the idea of the Church Planting Consortium to a group of southern Utah pastors, it was a step of faith in response to a challenge from BMW's General Director, Paul Seger, to 'think outside the box in church planting'.

Today, five years later the Consortium, which is not an organization but rather a joint vision of BMW and Tentmakers Bible Mission to expedite church planting in the inter-mountain west, has been able to see the launching of six new ministries, which is more than triple the average number of plants in that time frame.

In the month of November 2005 alone, BMW missionaries began Sunday services for two new churches. Frank and Roberta Curtis planted Grace Bible Church in Morgan, Utah, and Rob and Joanne Brannon started Rocky Mountain Bible Church in Willard, Utah. In addition, missionaries Ben and Sarah Cline, with Tentmakers, launched Bible classes for Harvest Bible Church in Spanish Fork.

Pray for the Curtis's and the Brannon's as they labor in their respective communities, neither of which has ever had a Bible believing church.
