Father's Day Celebration
Join us THIS Sunday as we celebrate all of the dads in our lives! We'll take time to honor the fathers, grandfathers, stepdads, mentors, and father figures who have encouraged us, supported us, made us laugh, taught us a thing or two, and maybe even claimed they didn't need directions. We’re grateful for the men who have helped shape our journeys, and we can’t wait to celebrate them together!

Middle School Summer Camp | June 20th - 24th, 2026
This weekend, our middle school students and leaders are heading off to summer camp! We'd love for you to keep them in your prayers as they spend time growing in their faith, building friendships, and creating memories together. Pray that students would encounter God in meaningful ways, and that our leaders would have wisdom, energy, and just enough caffeine to keep up with them. 😉 We're excited to hear the stories of how God moves during camp week!
High School Element Camp | August 5th - 9th
Save the date and join us as we go INTO THE WILD! If you’re a high schooler (finishing 8th -12th grade) we’ll be camping in Trout Lake (in the Mt. Adams Forest), Rock Climbing at Horse Thief Butte, Spelunking in Dead Horse Caves, Jumping into Trout Lake River, Swing in the tress at Camp Jonah, and Rafting on the White Salmon River. All that and more for $350…SO WORTH IT! Get it on your calendar now and watch for registrations to open soon.
WHEN: We will leave on Weds. Aug. 6 at 10am and return on Sunday, Aug. 10 at 10:00pm

“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” -Matthew 6:21
Tips to Think About Giving -
One idea is to look at everyday spending - like fast food, coffee, or eating out - and consider “fasting” from a few of those moments, choosing to give that amount instead. Another helpful rhythm is to give first, rather than waiting to see what’s left at the end of the month.
Remember, no gift is small in the eyes of Jesus. Every act of generosity matters and is used in big ways for the Kingdom.

Mac & Amy Smith | InterVarsity Utah & Rocky Mountain Region
