OUTDOORS WITH JESUS

ARCHES NATIONAL PARK 1986


OUTDOORS WITH JESUS  
Began in the Summer of 1986 as an informal Hiking group. We're not a outfitter, we're not a singles ministry; but a non profit, non-commercial hiking group along the Wasatch Front of Northern Utah.

MT RAYMOND  JULY 2004

OWJ CLUB FOCUS: It's all about Jesus!   
In humility consider others as more important than yourselves.  Come will an attitude of Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness and Self Control.
