OUR STORYI was born in Chicago,
Illinois and was raised
in a pastor’s home.
The memories o my
childhood and teen
years were flled with
illustrations o God’sgrace made evident
through the lie o
my parents who
aithully served God and others in the church
and consistently displayed a genuine walk with Christ.
I was taught the gospel as child and came to faith
in Christ as a 12-year-old boy. I went to Bob Jones
University to study music, and my junior year I met
my wie Sarah. The Lord began to change my heart
regarding my attitude towards serving God and His
Church and then ollowing graduation I spent a year
traveling with the Steve Pettit Evangelistic Team.That year was a defning moment in my lie as I was
discipled in an atmosphere o brotherly love. I was
shaped by teammates who had a deep hunger or
God and served Him with Christ-like humility. In 2002,
the Lord directed Sarah and I to move to Brookfeld
Wisconsin to serve on the pastoral sta at Brookside
Baptist Church as assistant pastor or music, media,
college age adults. God has blessed us with three
children; Samantha, Seth and Silas. The congregation
at Brookside has illustrated the power o the gospel
to save and transorm lives. God has used our years at
Brookside to confrm God’s call on our lives to make
disciples through the local church. I have a burden
for college ministry, worship, discipleship and am
fullled in caring for the ock of God. I am deeply
committed to passionate private worship which uels
my corporate worship and service to God, ervent
evangelism through developing gospel-centered re-
lationships, and intentional discipleship by instruction
and imitation.
In 2011, God called us to move to Salt Lake City, Utah
and we are thankul or God’s kindness in allowing
us to participate in Plant4theGospel or the glory o
God. We move forward by faith.
COMMENDATIONSKen Keltner, PAStOr “Jonathan and Sarah Albright
in ten years o ministry at Brookside Baptist Church
have lived lives o aithulness, transparency, and integ-
rity. Jonathan and Sarah have a tremendous passion or
knowing God’s Word and eectively communicating it
to others. They have touched the lives o people through
discipleship and evangelism. I am excited or what God
is doing in their lives and anticipating wonderul news o
God’s power.”
PAul Mccure, DIScIPleD At BBc “This couple reveres
our King earully and serves Him tirelessly with the many
gits He has given them. On numerous occasions the Lord
has used Jonathan to provide me with a song, a book, or
a Scripture passage I needed at that time to redirect my
path. They have also taught us what biblical hospitality is
on many dierent occasions.”
SAM HOrn, PAStOr “Gospel driven people live Gospel-
centered lives in Gospel-centered ways no matter where
it takes them. Jonathan and Sarah are such individuals
and their radical pursuit o Christ and His Gospel is taking
them to a place ripe or Gospel ruit. Pray that God would
attend their desires and eorts with His grace and power
and raise up an army o partners in prayer and support.
Consider being one such partner!”
SteVe PettIt, eVAnGelISt “How exciting is it to watch
experienced, young servants o Christ launch out into new
territories or the sake o the Gospel! From the day I heard
that Jon and Sarah Albright were deciding to go to Salt
Lake City to plant a church, my heart was thrilled and my
vision was increased. They have aithully, sacrifcially, and
eectively labored in the local church or a decade.”
DeAn tAylOr, PAStOr “It has been my privilege to
know the Albrights since 2002 when Jonathan began
serving as Minister o Music at the church I pastored at
the time. From day one their sincerity o heart, love or
people, and use o their gits or the glory o God has
characterized all they do. Although Jonathan is very git-
ed musically, I would say that he is best known or being
a genuine disciplemaker. The Albright amily are genuine,
passionate Christ-ollowers, and I believe will be greatly
used o God in this church planting endeavor.”

PLANT4THEGOSPEL PROMOTES THE
CREATION OF HEALTHY CHURCHES IN
STRATEGIC METROPOLITAN AREAS.
By God’s grace our families are partnering with indi-
viduals and churches to raise monthly support. This
will allow our team to ocus as a team on planting new
church-planting churches in Salt Lake City, UT that cen-
ter on genuine worship, intentional relational evange-
lism, gospel-centered discipleship and community, and
purposed multiplication.
A NEEDY CITY. A RIPE HARVEST.O the 2.6 million in Utah, over 2 million
live within one hour of downtown Salt
Lake City.
The region has the youngest population,
the highest birthrate, the most educated
adult workorce, and the lowest number
of gospel preaching churches per person
o any state in the country.
Gospel luminance in the city is just 1
evangelical church for every 10,000 people.
“Only” 45% of Salt Lakers claim to be connected
to the LDS church. Many think it is higher.
30,000 students in downtown Salt Lake call Uni-
versity o Utah home.
Current statistics show that there are more than
400,000 religisly “claimed” peple i Salt
Lae City.
HOW THE TEAM CAME TOGETHER.Over the last year, God has been moving individually
and yet similarly in all our o our amilies. He began
poking at our comort zones and working on our
hearts about steps o aith. We have been serving in
our current ministries or the last 7-10 years. Through
dierent riends and ministry connections, we began
to talk and pray about mission-minded church plant-
ing. We took a survey trip together to Salt Lake City,
and God ignited incredible unity o vision and mis-
sion in our hearts!
We believe that God has brought us all together “or
such a time as this.” The more we have sought God’s
will, the more we believe that we must take what
God has taught us over the last decade and share it
with people who do not have access to it.
GIVING WILL ENABLE GOSPEL WORK.We operate by aith, depending on God to work in
the hearts o His people to meet our needs and help
us to begin this aith endeavor. Your giving frees us
to take the Gospel quickly and directly to Salt Lake
City to the praise o Christ’s name and the advance-
ment o His kingdom.

are only just beginning to realize how dicult the path
will be along the way. “But without aith it is impossible
to please Him, or he who comes to God must believe
that He is and that He is a rewarder o those who dili-
gently seek Him.” Our heart’s desire is to please God
and to see people saved and discipled in Utah.
