About Surge Network
History
In 2007, pastors from various denominations gathered around a table to ask, “how might we work together to see our church participate in God’s mission for our city?” What grew out of that was a vision for a visible city-wide church movement and the fruit has been countless leaders collaborating for mission in our city. Surge desires to catalyze multi-ethnic church leaders in Arizona from diverse church backgrounds committed to friendship, God's mission, and the flourishing of our local communities. We pray Surge, in partnership with countless other gospel partners across our city, will make Jesus visible to our neighbors.
