What does it mean to live sent?
At Pulpit Rock, we believe that 100% of us have already been SENT into our neighborhoods, workplaces and city. The greatest invitation we have to follow Jesus is to join God in His mission to bring redemption and beauty to a broken world.
Living as Kingdom people means that missions isn’t just for a few of us, it’s for every adult, student and child. That’s what we mean when we say 100% SENT.
There are lots of ways to live SENT! It might look like joining a serve day, connecting with neighbors, giving generously to God’s work around the world, going on a missions trip, praying, serving at a local school. It might look like something God has uniquely wired and formed in you that we haven’t even thought of yet.
At Pulpit Rock, we have lots of ways to invite you into what God is doing. We also want to coach, resource and help you discover the unique ways that YOU have been SENT so you can step into the fullness of this adventure of following Jesus.
Explore some ways our people are living SENT in Colorado Springs and around the world, and JOIN US!

Give
Did you know that in addition to normal giving (to support the operations and ministry of Pulpit Rock Church) we have special designated accounts where 100% of every dollar goes directly towards work in our city and around the world?
In the past 6 years, we’ve given away over $2M in funds through designated giving! That’s in addition to the $130,000+ we will invest this year alone in partner organizations and missionaries from our annual giving budget.
We have designated accounts connected to our current areas of focus and a designated missions account that you can give to support all year long...
100% of every dollar given for a specific purpose goes directly to that organization or ministry. Our regular budget funds things like admin and staff travel on missional trips, so we can ensure that every dollar makes it to the hands of those we are partnering with!
Stories of your Kingdom impact
If we build it…
If you’ve been at church the past few weeks, you may have noticed that we’ve been doing a little demolition of our west parking lot. What, you might have wondered, is going on? We’re glad you asked. The answer is … we’re building a field. But actually, think of it not so much as a field but as our outdoor “table.”
Moved Into the Neighborhood
Recently, our family made a big move to be closer to Pulpit Rock, our coffee shop, and the places we are creating community. Leaving a large house of seven years where we had all four of our kids together and a neighborhood we had settled in was hard, but we felt that we needed to live more intentionally missional in last decades of our life.

Led and Loved by “the least of these”
We “do” the basketball camp, youth gatherings, and painting knowing we’re doing it for Jesus. Under the stars the last night, I looked at Juan, sitting in the glow of that fire, and realized that maybe in the midst of us thinking we’re doing something for them, for “the least of these,” they’re actually doing something for us.
SENT | Carly Miller | Serving Refugees in Greece
Carly Miller spent two and half weeks in Greece serving refugees: “I thought that I knew what I was going to see and hear when we started working with the refugees, but let’s just say I seriously underestimated what I had prepared myself to experience.”
Responding to Teen Suicide
As our city has been devastated the last several years by teen suicide, we have been asking what our response should be as a church. Thanks to your faithful giving, last year we were able to give $2,200 to help provide counseling scholarships for individuals and families in our city so they can receive the help they need.
