State:	Nevada

The Universal Uprising Church is a church in Life is Strange 2 in Haven Point, Nevada. Its first appearance is in Episode 4 where Sean Diaz has traveled here to find his missing brother, Daniel Diaz. It is headed by Pastor Lisbeth Fischer.

Captain Spirit

While inside his house, Chris Eriksen can choose to pick up the ringing house phone at the request of his father, Charles Eriksen. Should he choose to do so, a man named Derek will pick up and introduce himself as a member of the church before asking Chris whether his parents are home; as Charles asks him who he's talking to, Chris hangs up mid-conversation and places the phone back on the wall.

Episode Four- "Faith"

After meeting Sarah Lee Hackerman and her father Robert Hackerman, Sean heads inside. He has the option of freshening up in the bathroom and donating money for the church. He tries to enter the main hall through the double doors but, aware that he will draw too much attention, decides to try the balcony. After Sean and Daniel's temporally reunion, Sean is forcefully thrown out by the pastor's faithful church member, Nicholas Durand to ensure that he doesn't meddle with Lisbeth's business. Sean later storms the church either with his mother or being dragged inside by Nicholas. A fire breaks out in the church during Sean and Karen's confrontation with Lisbeth, which may lead Lisbeth to be killed by either Sean or Daniel as she attempts to prevent them from escaping. The brothers manage to exit the burning church along with Karen, followed by Nicholas and Lisbeth (if still alive).

Online article about the church by Gazette:

A Slice Of Haven Point by Robert Neil

One of the great mysteries of Nevada is how it balances the Holy Spirit with the Holy Dollar. Few tourists travel from around the world to seek religion here, but in the tight-knit Christian community of Haven Point, Nevada, a charismatic Pastor has inspired a devout following. As she told me in an interview at her peaceful church office, Reverend Lisbeth Fischer has spent her whole life "...as a humble disciple of the Lord, feeling the call to share His love and glory in this dark age. I had a powerful experience as a child that put me on the righteous path." She smiles gently and touches my hand, "But this is not about me or my story as anybody in our wonderful church can tell you." And tell me they did. The members of The Universal Uprising Church speak with hushed awe of their Pastor and how she inspires them: "Reverend Fischer just wants to share her blessings with us," says Corey Johnson, 34, a recent addition to the congregation. "I was pretty cynical before I went to one of her revivals... You could feel the electricity when she spoke. People were crying -- including me."
