Mercy Ministries
Mercy Ministries International (MMI), is a 501c3 non-profit organization created to restore dignity and generate hope to people in need - at home and across the globe. Our goals at this time involve the following:
Local Focus: El Rio
- Provide women with children a transitional living home
- Provide food distribution services
- Provide after-school tutoring for elementary
school-age children
To accomplish these goals in El Rio, we are currently working with the 1st Baptist Church of El Rio, located on Cortez Street. Our Food Pantry Ministry has been in operation since January, 2008. We have provided food to many grateful families so far. Volunteers are always needed. Please click the link for this ministry for more information or to sign up to serve.
