Hello Sonrise Church!

Thank you for signing up to receive our weekly Sonrise Roanoke eNews! We want to do everything we can to equip people to experience a life-changing relationship with Jesus! Check out our website www.sonrisechurch.info for more information!

Check out the Bible reading plan that is part of our new series Transformed. You can search "Transformed" in your Bible app in the Plans section, or you can click here to find it online.

FUEL THIS SUNDAY:
We continue our series, Battlefield, talking about Anger.  King Solomon, considered to be one of the wisest men who ever lived, wrote a book in the Bible full of practical wisdom called Proverbs. What better place to look for wise ways to handle anger than in a book written by someone known for his wisdom? Solomon's seemingly simple instructions offer us a practical solution to help keep ourselves from letting our anger become a danger. 
  
Do you have the gift of compassion?  Are you a good listener? Have you ever thought about being a Stephen Minister?  Stephen Ministry is Christ Caring for People through People and we invite you to join us for an informational meeting at the SW campus in The Garage at 6:30 p.m., Monday, October 26th. Find out all about Stephen Ministry, learn about the training and get all your questions answered during a Q & A with current Stephen Ministers.  A new class will be starting the first of the year.  Who knows, this just may be what you've been looking for!


 

Community Outreach:  October 23 will be our annual HarvestFest featuring Trunk or Treat, Chili Cook-Off, hot dogs, s'mores, and a hay ride.  Look for the sign up sheet outside the office to help. 

If you've experienced loss, the holidays can seem overwhelming.  Gain support and a new perspective by attending Surviving the Holidays, a seminar designed to help anyone struggling with grief navigate the upcoming holidays. Register here for the SW campus on November 9th at 6:30 p.m. or the Roanoke campus on November 12th at 7:00 p.m.
