Full Self Emergence Commuter Program

A non-residential spiritual studies program at Sunrise Ranch

In many people’s life, there comes a time when they realize that they have to become more deeply engaged with what is truly important. The Full Self Emergence Spiritual Studies program at Sunrise Ranch provides that opportunity. For various periods of time, participants may commute from the local area, near this Spiritual Center in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, to open more fully to their inner voice and calling.

The premise of the program is that the inner nature of every person contains profound stillness and knowing. When we let that inner nature emerge through us, we feel connected to people, and to the natural world. We know happiness, effectiveness and fulfillment. Most of all, we come to know that the truest thing about us is that we are a spiritual being who has a great gift to bring to the world. And that gift is brought as we are fully ourselves in the way we live our life.

People who participate in work-study at Sunrise Ranch for a year or more finish with a strong sense of personal purpose and destiny, and a strong knowing of who they are and who they want to be in the world. Of course, the experience of any individual participant is dependent upon the depth of their own work.

If you feel ready to walk a path which lets the fullness of your spirit come forth, and you desire to engage in an environment where that is welcomed, we invite you to consider Full Self Emergence. ===============================================================

    • Work as love made visible

Full Self Emergence participants have the opportunity to be a visiting member of the Sunrise Ranch community, and to engage in the activities here. They find themselves surrounded by a community of love that supports vital spiritual change.

Work Exchange

Work is an intrinsic part of the program. As a commuter in the program, each participant’s work is a service to the variety of activities at Sunrise Ranch, which includes these areas:

    • Our organic farm and ranch
    • Meal preparation/Sunrise kitchen
    • Our Conference and Retreat service
    • Gardening and landscaping
    • Publications and administration

Daily work fulfilled in a spirit of loving service is a vital part of the opportunity for personal learning and transformation provided by this program. We offer an invitation to engage in everyday tasks from an expression of one’s highest integrity and vision. Such service requires commitment, focus, and devotion to expressing the spirit of the divine. Deliberate action undertaken in a loving attitude, along with accuracy and care in one’s work, creates an energetic channel of blessing intended to serve humanity and encourage those same qualities on the planet as a whole. Those willing to engage in such inner discipline find devotional work to be among the most powerful of crucibles for transformation. Devotional work is a cornerstone of this program and of all true inner change.

Note: One four hour shift per week is the program requirement for commuters.

COACHING PROGRAM Individual Coaching is provided for each participant. Participants are assigned a coach who will meet with them at regularly arranged intervals. This is an opportunity for individual attention and support to bring a sharper focus to each person’s spiritual exploration, personal transformation, and world service.

WEEKLY FULL SELF EMERGENCE MEETINGS AND TRAINING Participants share in a weekly Transformation Group, designed as a forum for sharing communion and insights into the practical levels of experience, a weekly Study Group for consideration of the Emissary foundational spiritual principles, and 2-3 hours per week specifically designated for Personal Spiritual Practice and Meditation.

FEE STRUCTURE The cost of the commuter program is $125.00 per month, plus participation in a four hour work shift in one of the Sunrise Ranch community departments, once a week.
