Foundational Principle: Rather than set a baptismal goal to measure progress, we will use a formulaic approach (with measurements) centered on the Utah Area Vision and the principles of Love, Share, and Invite. We are confident that as our ward draws nearer to Christ using the below framework, we will be empowered to help people come unto Christ and eventually be baptized, receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, and make and keep other covenants.
Area Vision: Help individuals and families place the Savior and sacred covenants at the center of their lives and joyfully live the gospel of Jesus Christ.
