Sunnyside Church Of God

What Sunnyside Church Of God does

Full Life Church (formerly Sunnyside Church Of God) is a Spirit-filled Christian congregation affiliated with the Church of God denomination headquartered in Cleveland, Tennessee. Operating from a single campus at 2510 East Cherokee Drive in Woodstock, Georgia, the church serves families across Cherokee County including Woodstock, Canton, Holly Springs, and Hickory Flat. The ministry is led by Lead Pastors Lance and Lorie Turner, who have been in ministry for over nineteen years, supported by a paid pastoral staff of nine across functions including Next Generation, Next Step, Worship and Arts, Financial Administration, Outreach, and Jr. Kids Directorship. The congregation engages in a community-led go-to-market model anchored on Life Groups, the 10:10 volunteer team, weekly Sunday worship services at 9:30 and 11:15 AM, Wednesday student ministry, and seasonal programs such as the free MEGA Sports and Art Camp.

The church's product surface comprises age-graded children's and youth ministries (Jr. Kids birth-PreK, Full Life Kids K-5th, Full Life Students 6th-12th), adult Life Groups, the Church Center App for digital engagement (giving, event registration, group signup, prayer requests), live streaming of worship services, and spiritual formation programs including 21 Days of Prayer and the Every Neighborhood prayer-walking initiative. Community outreach is delivered through strategic partnerships with seven external nonprofits: Never Alone (food distribution), Samaritan's Purse (disaster relief, Operation Christmas Child), Lionslife and Isaiah 61:1 Project (prison ministry), Goshen Valley (foster care), CUPS Ministries (Malawi), YWAM Louisville (missionary support), and the Friends of Agape Partnership / Jeevan School (Asia). The organization is currently executing a multi-phase facility renovation called Next Gen Transformation to convert its gymnasium into expanded student and family ministry space.

Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary tithes and offerings, with secure online and mobile giving available through the Church Center App on a one-time or recurring basis. All worship services, programs, and the MEGA camp are free to attend, and giving is not publicly disclosed. The church reports social impact metrics including 89 salvations in a recent year, more than 75,768 pounds of food distributed to 1,522 households, nearly 11,000 households served over six years, and 1,300+ inmates reached through prison ministry partnerships. The entity is a private nonprofit religious organization with no public ticker, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no disclosed financial statements.
