UMM – United Methodist Men

All of us are called to God’s work but sometimes in quieter and less visible ways. The focus of the United Methodist Men (UMM) is to be the invisible hands of God but with a reach that spans almost every aspect of our church. Our group was founded when Sunrise began. Its mission is to encourage men to be disciples through study, fellowship and volunteer work. All males, 13 or older, are welcome to join.

Many of you have come to know us through our fundraising activities like the Produce Sales, Holiday Greens, or through our church activities like the Pancake and Sweetheart dinners, and the annual Church Winter Fun Day.  UMM also helps with the Annual Barbecue for the Marian House, Christmas Unlimited, and Seven Falls.  However, many of you may not know that our members work right along side you in other capacities such as Northern Churches Care, the Church Finance Committee, Church Council, Sunday School, Choir, Orchestra, teaching adult classes, Habitat for Humanity, Boy Scouts, or that we provide scholarships for campers.  Mission work is also conducted locally, nationally, and abroad by UMM.  Please take the time to check out our web page on the Sunrise website to see the numerous missions and activities that we support through our funds and our labor.

We invite you to join us during our Breakfast meetings on the second Saturday of every month at 8:00 AM. Or stop and ask for one of our brochures and give one of us a call. You will not be disappointed with our camaraderie, outreach and recreational activities and the chance to connect with every part of Sunrise.
