About Son-Shine Outreach Center
Our Mission
SON-SHINE Outreach Center is a not for
profit, that was began in Oct 1987 in a
closet at the First United Methodist
Church, was incorporated in October
2009 by concerned community leaders
who saw far too few services available in
Madison County for those desperate and
in need for services, and has grown to
serve over 8,000 clients annually..
The SonShine Outreach Center is a
ministry composed of community and
area churches to help families in crisis.
Knowing that one person or organization
can not meet the many needs of a crisis, a
collaborative effort of many through love
for each other is used to meet the basic
needs of food, shelter, and clothing for
individuals and families experiencing
crisis.
Therefore, it is most desirable that this be
a cooperative ministry effort. This
ministry shall be in keeping with the spirit
of Christ, “Whatsoever you do to the least
of these my brothers, you do it unto Me.”
Our Purpose
The Center seeks to enlist the support of
member churches and their congregations
and service organizations in order to:
respond to the physical, spiritual, material,
social and educational needs of persons in this area; work in cooperation with both
public and private agencies serving persons; open channels of communication
between various groups within the area and be a channel for all groups of goodwill to
serve humankind.
Persons with needs are to be served regardless of race, gender, social and economic
status, national origin, or religious background, to the end that all persons served can
be helped to achieve their fullest potential as Children of God.
The Center develops, sponsors, promotes programs, and policies and functions in
order to respond to the call of people who are in need.
