At Sonrise, people connect with others through our Connect Groups which meet in homes and other locations during the week. In a Connect Group, you can experience fun and engaging discussions, Bible and book studies, prayer groups, and activity clubs where friendships grow and everyone can be personally supported and built up.
Take a look below to learn more about each of the Connect Groups that are currently meeting virtually & in-person while maintaining social distancing. Then, head to the Group Finder to see what groups work with your schedule.
For more information on joining a connect group you see below, or hosting and leading a new Connect Group, please email - connectgroups@sonrise.net

Now is the time to choose faith over fear and live with more freedom, joy, and impact. As Ephesians 3:12 says, “Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence” (NLT).
Discover how you can have daring faith in these uncertain times and make a difference for Christ through Pastor Rick Warren’s Daring Faith 6-session study.
The Daring Faith Workbook includes study guides for all six personal or small group lessons and a devotion for each day. You’ll learn to:
- Expect the best from God each day
- Build a bold and unshakable life of faith
- Stretch your imagination further
- Take initiative
- Face your fears
- Believe while you're waiting
This 6-week study starts on Thursday, May 27th at 6:00PM. Alternating weeks on Zoom for those that are unable to participate in person. To join us on Zoom, please contact Kelly at kelly@sonrise.net.
