Welcome from our Pastor
Welcome to Sunrise UMC !!
Our
God is an awesome God and we desire to get to know you and to invite
you to visit our church. We are excited to offer you the
invitation to attend a worship service, any class or Bible study, any
and all of our fellowship activities or mission projects. We
welcome you to stop by or call us. God cares about you and so do
we. We are an open congregation to everyone of every age and hope
you will come and share with us. People attend our church from
many different walks of life and financial means. So this is a
place where you will fit it and come to call home over time.
We
offer you a warm welcome. We are a United Methodist Church of the
Wesleyan tradition which offers communion to every one as we believe
the communion table is Christ’s table and Christ is the one who says to
each of us, “Come, just as you are.” We believe that the Bible is
our basis but also that your experience and knowledge and tradition is
valuable. As Methodists, we do not always think and believe
exactly like each other. There is room for everyone in the unity
of our faith in Jesus Christ.
There is a place for you to
help out and serve from missions to singing in the choir. We have
fun with church pot-lucks and community dinners such as the chicken
barbeque in the fall and chili supper in the winter and Fashion Show
and luncheon in May. We are a church with a focus on mission work
in our community so there are many opportunities to help make our world
a better place.
Sunrise is easily assessable from #101 or from
Union Hills. It is half way between those two on the west side of
7th Avenue. We have 60-70 in attendance at worship most of the
year with many winter visitors joining us in the fall. With two
worship services of classic with a beautiful choir and contemporary
with an outstanding band, there is a wonderful choice for
worship. We have adult classes of Bible study, Sunday school and
small group studies. We have Sunday school for preschool
elementary and youth.
Please stop by and come in for a visit. We welcome you and thank you for visiting our web site.
