Through relationships and small groups, we journey with each other through all of life’s stages––believing that each person holds immense value as image bearers of God.

At Sunrise, we believe everyone is created in the image of God and is worthy of belonging and full participation in God's kingdom.

We denounce discrimination on the basis of any of the items listed above. We celebrate the diversity of life and each individual's unique gifts and talents, and we work together to love our neighbors the way Christ teaches us.
