• From the Utah Orem Mission...

  • You are part of the Utah Orem MISSION!

  • The Lord has asked us to sweep the Earth with a flood, and that flood is social media! The Utah Orem Mission has developed two Facebook pages to further His work. The first page, The Road to Hope and Peace posts daily uplifting content that is non denominational. It provides a simple digital means to share the gospel with anyone.  If you're concerned about not knowing how to use social media, there is no need to fear. The Utah Orem Missionaries page explains HOW to share the gospel online and provides engaging challenges to inspire you to step outside of your comfort zone. You, the members, are our GREATEST resource in furthering the gospel here. 

  • We need your help!  Please “like” each of these pages and engage with both pages so you can get more involved in the work! They are reachable by the links below:
