Help the Poor Just South of the US Border
Voice of America, 2009
Our vision is to build a Community Center where the following can be established: Orphanage, Vocational Training Center, Community Kitchen, Warehouse, Medical Clinic, Place of Worship, Gymnasium, and Playground. Thousands of families have been helped through JEM Ministries in its years of existence. We strive to keep providing these services to underprivileged families.
GodWe believe that the Bible was inspired by God and we are created in God's image. The One God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. All men have sinned and have come short of the Glory of God. But God has made salvation possible through the bloodshed and death of Jesus on the cross of Calvery- the resurrection of Jesus Christ
JEM Ministries is committed to share God's love with people of all cultures and to help them in areas where needed most, like Spiritual, Hunger, Education, Poverty, Child Abuse, Vocational Training, and Disaster Relief. We exist to advance the cause of Christ, through ministries that educate, build character, and show people there is hope in the midst of their problems.
GoodDistribution
We receive food, new school supplies and toys year round and distribute them to families in need. You may see the list of food items we need here. Please contact us to arrange pick up or drop off.
Construction
We have been building the community center out of our own funds and our donors' generous support. We need construction material to finish building our orphanage, medical clinic, and office. In area where construction is close to finish, we need equipment and furniture to make the space fully operational. You may see the full list here.
Please consider donating these items if you own a business of building supplies or appliances. You may also donate other functional construction items. JEM Ministries is a 501(c)(3) Non-profit Organization, and we will provide receipt of your donations.

The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition show came to El Paso, TX, and the Ruiz family was one of the top 5 families out of 300 in El Paso and out of 5,000 applications the show receives a week.
On the week of January 12, 2009, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition crew demolished Ruizs' old home and built them a new one. Extreme Makeover gave them a new beginning. Once again, God is faithful to his promises.
