As we look back on our very first year at Love & SONshine Ministries, our hearts are full—with gratitude, with awe, and with deep joy at all God has done through this mission. From day one, we have been fueled by faith, carried by community, and blessed beyond measure by your generosity.
This past year was nothing short of miraculous.
Because of your prayers, your donations, and your unwavering support, lives have been changed. Young mothers who once felt hopeless have found shelter, support, and most importantly, the unconditional love of Jesus. Infants who were once at risk now sleep safely under our roof, wrapped in warmth, care, and prayer.
Let the numbers tell part of the story:
- 50 young mothers received assistance in vital areas like housing, healthcare, food, and employment.
- 14 infants and children were given a place to call home—including three who were destined for abortion before our intervention.
- 10 homeless young mothers found safe shelter and hope for a new future.
- 5 beautiful hearts made professions of faith or were baptized, stepping into a new life with Jesus.
These aren’t just numbers. They’re stories of redemption. They’re generational impact. They are proof that your partnership with Love & SONshine is making a real and lasting difference—two heartbeats at a time.
Stewarding Your Generosity
We’re committed to transparency and integrity in all we do. Here’s how your giving made an impact:
- 55.4% of our expenses went directly to life-changing programs.
- Additional funds supported staffing, community development, and special projects.
- Our ministry was supported by a beautiful mix of individuals, businesses, grants, and our faithful SONshine Monthly Givers.
We are continually amazed by the miracles we witness every day, and we want you to know—we couldn’t do this without you. Every life changed is a direct result of your faithfulness.
Looking Ahead with Hope
As we move into our second year, we do so with hopeful anticipation. There is still so much to be done, and we know God is just getting started. We invite you to continue this journey with us—through prayer, giving, and sharing our mission with others.
From the bottom of our hearts: thank you. You are part of every story, every breakthrough, and every heartbeat that finds healing at Love & SONshine.
With love and gratitude,
Heather & Heidi
