The Gravelys’ Utah Connection

Dr. Ed Gravely, professor of Christian studies, and Angela Gravely, instructor of English, are involved with the Utah GenSend students through CSU and their church, Crossroads Community in Summerville.

Crossroads Community Church financially supported the students who go to Crossroads and help run the college ministry, Allie Wade, Corey Wade, and Jake Thompson with their GenSend trips. The church also financially supports the Redemption North Davis church plant. Crossroads is sending a team to assist the GenSenders in the summer of 2025.

Ed said, “Our church tries to visit at least some of the missionaries we support every year. Jake has been to Utah multiple times, and Corey and Allie both also did the spring break trip to Utah.” Corey has moved to Utah where he is working with the church planting team/internship while he finishes up the last semester of his Christian studies major online.

Ed and Angela traveled to Utah in March to hold a short apologetics conference and two teaching events.
