Hello
Hi, my name is Dyani Gianquento, and I am the founder of Rise Up Now. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about this ministry. My story is proof that if God can transform someone like me, He can transform anyone. I have dedicated my life to seeing people come to faith in Christ and to awakening the Church to live fully for Him.
About Rise Up Now
At Rise Up Now (RUN), our mission is simple yet urgent: to see people encounter Jesus, be saved, and equipped to walk in the fullness of God’s purpose. We fulfill this call through evangelism and teaching, with the gospel revealed not only in words but in the demonstration of the Spirit’s power — bringing salvation, healing, and deliverance. Whether through public outreaches, ministry within the Church, digital media, or one-on-one ministry, every part of this work points people to Jesus and calls them to rise up and run with the gospel — because It’s Time to R.U.N.
This ministry was birthed out of God’s call on my life. As a teenager, I went through a troubled season that led me into the exotic dancing industry at a young age, but everything changed when I had a radical encounter with Jesus. Not long after, the Lord made clear His call for me to carry the gospel to the lost and to equip the Church to live fully for Him.
Our heart is twofold: to reach the lost and to equip the Church. We believe every believer — whether newly saved or walking with Jesus for years — is called to rise up into their purpose and become a fisher of men. As we ourselves run with this call, we invite others to join the movement. Together, let’s rise up… it’s time to run.
