The Love of Jesus, The "J" radiates to the "Circle" which represents the fellowship found at Circle J.

It was prayerfully intended when this land was consecrated to GOD that the Circle "J" in the name will inspire those who walk here to always keep JESUS CHRIST in the center of their every thought, word, and deed.

Historic Church & Apple Orchard

Circle J's OGG Apple Orchard was planted way back when the ranch was a working ranch. Why the orchard was planted has been lost with time but the trees were planted over a 100 years ago. These old trees can not be reproduced and even with the help of Master Gardner Specialist from UWY, the 3-5 types of apples in the Orchard are still a mystery in this orchard.

Circle J Ranch Orchard is considered a Historical site with people traveling long distances so they can take home cases of mouth watering apples.
