Our Space
Our Meeting Space
We are accessible to people with mobility limitations, with all facilities on one level and accessible restrooms including a family restroom. A ramp to the pulpit allows all to lead. We offer wireless sound transmission for those with hearing impairments. We welcome everyone and want to accommodate whatever needs you have.
The Peace Place is available for anyone who needs a soothing space to feel at peace and return to participating. It has tools to help you find sensory regulation, reset, or reflect.
Sharing our Space
As part of our mission, the Sunnyside meeting space is shared with the community:
Piedra Viva Mennonite Church, a Spanish-language congregation which is a sibling member of Indiana-Michigan Mennonite Conference, hosts Sunday afternoon worship services, fellowship, classes, and other activities. We worship together with Piedra Viva
and share a fellowship meal quarterly.
La Posada Immigrant Aid provides immigration resources to Elkhart County communities including providing citizenship classes, written materials, legal counsel and referrals. The center’s offices are located in the Sunnyside building. La Posada is rooted in the Anabaptist Mennonite belief that Christians should welcome newcomers and immigrants.
HiSET classes take place in the Sunnyside church building for students preparing to
take their high school equivalency exam.
In addition, the church building has been made available for local board meetings and
community events.
