About Son-Shine Outreach Center
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.”
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.
