Welcome to the 10 week journey!
Our Sonrise Discipleship Journey powered by ROOTED, is a transformational journey that provides the opportunity to connect with God, the Church community and your purpose in unexpected and life-changing ways. This 10-week journey is one of the most transformational life experiences we have at Sonrise.
Whether you have been following Jesus for years, or are new to the faith, this is the perfect place to jump in! The journey will best benefit you as you make the commitment to attend all 10 meetings with a new community. If you can’t make at least 8 of 10 meetings, please wait until a later term. These groups are offered three times a year; winter, spring and fall.
All groups will start with a Vision Night at Sonrise and continue on the following weeks at your groups determined location and time. You'll receive your materials, hear from Pastor Paul, and spend some time in your group that night!

We realize that the Journey group is a significant commitment and we believe it is worth it. Due to this belief, if you know you are going to miss more than two of the ten meetings, we ask that you wait to register for a future semester (offered in Winter, Spring or Fall). The ten weeks are a cumulative experience and so we ask that every participant commit to honor each other with being at every meeting.
-
The aim is that each group desires to continue as a Life Group after the ten weeks. This is not required of you, but it’s our hope and prayer that you stay in community with other followers of Christ.
