Ministry Model

Learn a little more about Sunrise

Many call our ministry model "unusual." We call it "where God has led us for now." Sunrise is a fellowship of believers who are led by a Pastoral team that consists of volunteer laymen. As a church body, we are committed to minister to both our fellowship and to those outside the walls of the church facilities.

God had led Sunrise since our inception to rely on lay people to lead the ministry. We are not opposed to having paid staff by either policy or belief. Currently our only paid staff is the youth director, but we have had college interns in the past.

God has blessed us with awesome volunteer men and women who are leading and doing the ministry of Sunrise- ALL called to this place are called to serve in their uniqueness.
