MISSION - WHAT WE DO

Justice & Mercy International (JMI) is a faith-based, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that exists to make justice personal for the poor, the orphaned and the forgotten of the world. JMI primarily works in Moldova in Eastern Europe and in the Amazon region of Brazil and we do our work through programs that have the Good News of Jesus at their core.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Moldova Orphan & Vulnerable Child Sponsorships: Moldova is one of the poorest countries of the former Soviet Union. It is ground zero for human trafficking in Europe. JMI targets its services toward orphaned & abandoned children in Moldova. We follow a strategic plan that includes: • Creating enduring relationships with children in orphanages & shelters through mission trips • Strengthening those connections through a sponsorship program, allowing Americans to invest long-term in a specific child • Providing transitional living homes for children with no families in order to keep them safe, help complete their education and provide them with vocational skills. Moldova Transitional Living Program: The government institutional care of orphaned and abandoned children lasts until they reach the age of 16, or the U.S. equivalent of the freshman year of high school. They are then on their own with no family, no home, and no support. JMI’s transitional living program is an effort to meet the needs of these vulnerable young people. Moldova Transitional Living Non-residential Sponsorship Program: Through this program you can support a needy young person who has been discharged from an orphanage and needs help to survive on her own. Your monthly gift will be used for higher education, renting a room from a family, food, healthcare and other needs. Amazon Special Needs Kids Sponsorship: Through our Special Needs Kids Sponsorship these “least of these” are cared for, and their families encouraged, through regular visits, help with food and medicines, and the knowledge that someone loves them. Sponsors will receive monthly reports and photos of the children they support. Amazon Emergency Food Aid Program: Half of each year in the Amazon is the rainy season. The first quarter of the year often brings desolation to the Jungle people in the form of massive flooding. Many villages will be underwater and many more cut off from being able to find food. JMA is one of just a few organizations that bring relief to these starving people, providing food bags and food items. Through the work of JMA many communities have begun to realize that God loves and cares for them and many have turned to Him as their Savior. Amazon Pastor Training Program: Our jungle pastor’s conference is at the center of all that we do. As we train and equip these precious pastors and their wives, we care for their villages and their people. Often needs are discovered through our relationships with local pastors that are then met through our ongoing programs. Those needs may be for local school to be built, for a child with special needs to be cared for, for emergency food aid to be delivered during the rainy season, for an ongoing children’s program like Pepe or Open Arms for preschool or school age children. We also take mission trip teams to the villages of our pastors to help with evangelism, medical care and home visits.
