In the 1980s an education wing was added on with six classrooms / offices. A five bedroom parsonage which was built adjacent to the church, was remodeled in 1990, and has been well-maintained. SCC is an independent / non-denominational church located in the heart of downtown Sunman, IN. (pop. 1034) Although Sunman is located in a small rural / agricultural community, being located on IN Hwy 101 and just 3 minutes to I-74, larger cities are just a short drive away.

Until the 1960s & 1970s, SCC was nearly filled to capacity and strongly supported multiple missions. Then, with multiple church splits, and with the added dying farming business, and more recently adversely affected by a severe recession, SCC has struggled to keep their doors open.
