Default How welcomed would a family from Wyoming be if we moved to Preston?

Greetings from Wyoming!
This is a relocation move for an existing company. If it's not us, it will be someone else.
We're a Christian family who prefer nondenominational churches. We are from small towns and are comfortable with that. Looking to find a town to stay in and finish raising our dc!
We love trees! Are there any?
We hope to live where it's not just a single faith community, but rather different faiths.
Appreciate any input.
~Blue Sky~

Are there any towns in the 30 mile range that have more of a multi faith community?
Are there any churches in Preston that are nondenominational? I will be looking into this myself, but thought I'd ask.

They will NOT be welcomed. It is a almost totally Mormon community. I use to live not far from Preston in Grace and we are not Mormon. Once they know you will not convert, that is pretty much it. They will be ignored and I just hope they do not have school age children.

You'll have to judge for yourself - but my experience has been just the opposite.
The Mormons I've known have been friendly and welcoming, and have not ever bothered to try and 'convert' me. I expect if you try to be a part of the community* and contribute something instead of being insulted because they 'show' their religion in the way they conduct themselves, you'll be ok.

*volunteer for something, lend a hand wherever a hand needs to be lent...
