About SOS Ministries
“We have been given an open door by the Archbishop of the Anglican church to go out and to teach and equip people in Gods Word. I believe we are going to bring a big revolution and revival in the Anglican Church, even in east Africa and Africa as a whole.”
Sufficiency of Scripture Ministries exists solely for the purpose of helping the people of Uganda. The board of directors of this ministry is seeking to raise funds specifically given directly to help in the mission efforts in Uganda. This ministry is a result of the founder and many others surrendering their lives and financial resources for the mission of this organization.
The needs of the country of Uganda far surpass the resources of an individual, but the opportunity presented to SOS Ministries will have a far surpassing influence over more than just one person. Sufficiency of Scripture Ministries is not just an organization; it is a group of individuals committed to loving people.
SOS Ministries History
“Ever since I went to Uganda in the summer of 1995, I have had a deep inescapable love for the people of Uganda.”
Shannon Hurley,
Founder of SOS Ministries
Founded in 2002, SOS Ministries is a Christian non-profit organization which seeks to provide humanitarian aid and biblical training to all those in need. Shannon Hurley, the founder, began SOS Ministries after seeing the overwhelming physical and spiritual needs of the Ugandan people. These needs primarily are a result of the horrific reign of Idi Amin in the 70’s and the devastating results of the AIDS epidemic.
Shannon Hurley was introduced to the country of Uganda in 1995 after traveling to the country of Kenya with a group of ten other volunteers on a short-term missions trip. While in Kenya, he met a Kenyan missionary to Uganda. During this visit Shannon went with ten others through the country of Uganda.
This trip made a tremendous impact on Shannon. His heart was moved by the love and joy of the Ugandan people. In January 2002, Shannon returned to the beloved country. The purpose of his visit was to see what opportunities he might have for the future. Consequently, SOS Ministries was born.
