Sunshine Christian Homes, a nonprofit organization in Pasco County, recently celebrated its 50th anniversary with a festive event featuring live music, food, games, and dancing. The facility opened in 1976 when a small group of Christians envisioned a supportive faith-based environment for older adults. Summer Wells emphasized that the organizations motto has remained quality care in a Christian environment for five decades. A history wall displayed old photos showing the construction of the facility and early community days during the celebration. Today, Sunshine Christian Homes offers independent villas and assisted living options to its residents in the Elfers community. The anniversary party allowed current residents and families to reflect on the past while celebrating those who still call Sunshine home.
