Mission Statement
Sunrise Mission is a Homeless and Domestic Violence Shelter that serves Northeastern MI area by encouraging hope, providing purpose, and fostering self-respect for those who come to us for assistance. We have the privilege of showing the love and grace of Christ to those we serve. We glorify God by assisting our Guests as they regain stability, productivity, and personal independence by providing temporary shelter and support services as they work hard alongside us to rebuild their lives for themselves and often their families.
About This Cause
Sunrise Mission was founded in 1989 by a coalition of local churches and state agencies who saw a need to provide assistance to the homeless in Alpena County. The organization that was originally Cornerstone Homeless Shelter became Sunrise Mission in 2000. Today we have more children in residence than ever before, are a roughly 38 bed (+assorted pack and play / toddler beds), offer a short term (80 day) program, we are a Christian Domestic Violence and Homeless Shelter located in Alpena, MI serving Northeast MI Council of Governments Prosperity Region of Michigan including 11 counties. Although Sunrise Mission is a Christian shelter, we do not require our guests to share our faith, but welcome people of all creeds. We are 100% funded by the generosity of our donors. At Sunrise Mission, we offer compassion, grace, and mercy to those struggling with poverty, homelessness and trauma caused from domestic violence. We walk along side our Guests to offer a "hand up" by providing for essential needs such as shelter, food, and spiritual support if requested. When a Guest arrives, we provide for their immediate physical needs as we encourage and support our guests gaining or maintaining steady employment to help "Break the Cycle of Homelessness". We assist our guests in building a new future for themselves and their families. Our goal is to purchase more facilities to increase our ability to provide additional shelter and meet the increasing needs of our community.
