At Goldensun Peace Ministries, our team is made up of compassionate, mission-driven professionals who are committed to serving adults with developmental disabilities. We bring diverse backgrounds, experiences, and gifts—but we’re united by a shared passion for creating a Christ-centered community of care, dignity, and belonging. Together, we strive to make a lasting impact in the lives of those we serve and in the broader community.

Our Mission

To promote the physical, social and spiritual well-being of adults with developmental disabilities.

We will provide a living environment that encourages better quality of life for our community members, strengthens the family, and encourages congregational and community support.

Our Passion

To extend Christ’s love to individuals with developmental disabilities, empowering them toward increased independence and enriched lives through interdependent relationships.

Faith-based community lifestyle for adults with developmental disabilities

Goldensun is a nonprofit 501c3 that offers community living within properties in a two-block section of Glendale, AZ. Our mission is to empower adults with developmental disabilities to live independently through support services from the Arizona Department of Economic Security, Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD). Members who live in our community are approved by DDD to receive services for an Individually Designed Living Arrangement (IDLA)

Goldensun is founded on a culture of community where members experience a healthy, independent environment and simultaneously benefit from shared transportation, community activities and friendship with peers in their neighborhood. This is accomplished with a mutually supportive team that includes our members, their families, and a dedicated, trained, and caring staff.
