History
Pastor Vangie Chavez is a spiritual visionary who began Rising Sun Ministries in an effort to help Christian churches in the Albuquerque area become open and affirming congregations where same-sex couples would be welcomed with open arms and free from fear and judgment so they could openly worship God/Christ with their partners. Rising Sun Christian Community was founded in 2012 by a group of people who were longing for a place to worship God where all could be free to worship as their authentic selves, free from the fear of condemnation.
Specialties
We exist to provide a welcome, open, and affirming, Christ-centered place of worship where ALL are offered the nurturing experience of meeting Jesus for the first time or again, of being spiritually challenged and fed, and encouraged to deepen their relationship with God.
