Mark and Kim will be serving with Tri-Grace Ministries and one of their outreach areas, the Solid Rock Café. This café is a ministry near the predominantly Mormon campus of Snow College. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints permeates Utah, as well as the world, with over 16 million Mormons worldwide. Many international LDS students and families come from all over the world to learn about Mormonism and also study Liberal Arts. Many prepare to go on to Brigham Young University to study further. In an area that is less than 1% Evangelical Christian, Mark and Kim have a tremendous opportunity to share their faith with college students and people from the community. They will oversee the intern program and teach young adults how to share their faith and live Godly lives in front of others, as well as evangelize, train, teach, coach, serve and disciple.
