Sunset Home, Quincy, Illinois
Our Heritage:
Sunset Home began in 1889 when Charles and Augusta Pfeiffer sent a proposal to the German Methodist Episcopal Conference offering to give their home and its contents to the conference if the church would continue its use as a home for the aged. The Pfeiffers were generously “Leading the Way” then by offering their home to “homeless old people” who no longer had a place to live. Their heritage, serving Jesus by opening their home to the aging, is the basis on which Sunset Home continues “Leading the Way” today.
Our Mission:
To share the love of Jesus Christ through services to the aging without regard to race, color or creed.
To administer the care for those served with compassion and with charity insofar as the finances of the corporation may be reasonably allocated.
