Youth Ministry

From Our Youth Director:
Hi!  My name is Mike O’Shaughnessey.  I’ve been the Youth Director at Sunrise for 12 years, and have been excited to see a lot of kids grow in their maturity and relationship with Jesus Christ.  There’s nothing better than seeing a young adult realize their value, as a son or daughter of their Creator!  My life was transformed when I was a freshman in high school.  I had heard about Jesus and even went to youth group, but it wasn’t until age 14 that I finally understood who Jesus was, and who I was because of Him.  Thank you, in advance, for the opportunity to put Christ’s love for your child on display at Sunrise youth group.  This is a special community of youth, and I look forward to seeing it grow (not just in numbers, but in depth of friendships).  Come give it a shot!

When and where do we meet?
Jr. High (click here):
Grades 6-8 meet on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month at the church.
