About j209


Our Mission


J209 is an award-winning powerhouse vocal band of vibrant young adults on a mission to unite all believers through faith in Jesus Christ. As vocalists who belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we build bridges between our faith and other Christian believers. Recognizing the divisions, misunderstandings, and even pain that can arise from differing beliefs, J209 seeks to shift the focus to what matters most—the transformative and healing power in Jesus Christ. Through energetic performances of popular contemporary Christian songs, J209 ignites the spirit, inspiring the rising generation to embrace faith, love, and unity. Our sound isn’t just heard—it’s felt—creating an unshakable bond among all believers through worship, truth, and a shared devotion to Christ.
