What We Do

Each of Sunshine’s ministries address an aspect of our overall mission to see our community members thrive within their families, churches, and neighborhoods.

Our Youth Outreach programs provide students with constructive activities after school and during the weekends. Our youth programming includes tutoring, Bible studies, discipleship training, and a monthly hip-hop worship service. Within these programs, young people are also able to participate in retreats, special recreational outings, college visits, and summer residential camping.

Our Community Technology Center offers our neighbors access to computers and Internet free of charge. The Center also provides hands-on, practical training for adults and high school students through various technology classes. During 2011 Sunshine’s board has adopted a shift in strategy to incorporate “business incubation” as an overall part of our mission.  Stay tuned to learn more about this exciting new work!

Our Bridge Builders program seeks to make suburban and rural churches aware of God’s work in urban centers. Student and adult participants are given the opportunity to listen, learn, and serve within Chicago in a unique and challenging way.
