THE RISE MISSION

RISE exists to connect individuals through a common purpose and a set of shared beliefs.  At RISE, we believe a need exists for a community of faith-focused outdoorsmen and women who are imperfect, passionate, and who believe in God's love and grace.   

As ambassadors for faith and family, and stewards of the resources God has given us, RISE is about turkey hunting the right way, and passing those traditions on to the next generation.  We believe that God is present in the turkey woods and that He reveals some of His most awesome wonders to us there.  RISE is a small prayer before the hunt, conversations in the turkey woods, and laughs over a meal at a rural diner when the hunt is complete.  RISE is accountability without judgement in both the way we hunt, and the way we live. 

So, get out there and maximize the day.  Don't squander the amazing gifts God has given us, and take an extra moment to appreciate them all.  Hug your family a little tighter, pray a little more, and give thanks to the Creator who makes it all possible.
