February Mission of the Month
Residing Hope
Residing Hope, formerly known as the Florida United Methodist Children’s Home, would like to thank you for selecting us as your Mission of the Month for February. We are honored and blessed by your faithful, generous partnership with us over the years. Your partnership enables us to minister to abused, abandoned and neglected children throughout Florida by offering Therapeutic Residential care at our campuses in Enterprise and Madison; Outpatient Counseling (virtually) throughout the state of Florida; Foster Care Services in four different counties; Independent Living on our Enterprise campus; and Spiritual Life at both our campuses. We also offer our Montessori School in Enterprise which serves the community around us. We are able to serve more than 300 children and families each week through our transformative ministries. Thank you so much! We love and appreciate you more than you know. Your support plays a crucial role in helping us provide these essential services and create a nurturing environment where children can thrive and find hope for a brighter future. As we move forward, we're excited to continue our journey together, building on our shared mission to make a positive impact in the lives of those we serve. With your continued support, we can achieve even greater things and bring hope to even more lives. Thank you once again for your trust and partnership.
Our Mission is to extend God’s Light, that all may know the love of Jesus and generously share it with the world.
The Light changes everything.
Our Vision: We are called to shine hope, peace and purpose across every generation, cultivating a thriving, diverse community by deepening connections with Jesus and one another.
We are a passionate congregation about reaching out in our local community as well as across the world with the love of Jesus Christ. We try to include an element of Missions in almost everything we do. We love traveling to places such as Africa, Peru, Cuba and many more as well as helping local missions such as the Fight Against Human Trafficking, Good Samaritan Mission, our UMC Children's Home and many more. Please consider getting involved in making a difference.

Thank you for your interest in becoming a Mission of the Month at The United Methodist Church of Sun City Center. As the Mission team, we are excited to learn more about your mission.
We receive many requests to become part of this program. We prayerfully read all applications with special consideration given to missions whose program is dedicated to making disciples of Jesus Christ and show a proven history of successful ministry. All missions accepted as Mission of the Month must support the mission and vision of The United Methodist Church of Sun City Center. Because we currently have many applications, not every mission that applies will be accepted this year.
We will closely study the goals of your mission, the actual percentage of your proposed budget that directly supports the slated mission, and your plans for documentation and ongoing evaluation and accountability. Should we support your mission, we will ask for a follow up at the end of the year, stating how the funds that you received were used.
Complete the application below. All 2026 submissions need to be completed by September 30th, 2025.
Blessings to you, and thank you for all that you do in moving forth in your mission to make a difference in our community and in God’s world.
