Education
Disinformation
Recently, there has been an assault on education. There has been a rewriting of history, stripping of museums, banning of books and an overt denial of truth. Concomitantly, we have failed to provide an equitable education in politics, economics, national and foreign policy, the law and the Constitution. Therefore, it is imperative that we educate our communities. We are in a fight for our existence. Disinformation has been unleashed and it is becoming progressively more difficult to discern the truth from a lie. Therefore,we must be educated.
MBM is committed to educating the masses through informative posts, videos, articles, woorkshops, seminars and podcasts.
Advocacy
Injustice
Much to our dismay, the current immigration situation in the United States is reminiscent of the experiences of African slaves and German and Italian immigrants under the Alien Enemies Act.
The exact numbers of deportees, detainees and third country removals of asylees, DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipients, immigrants, migrants, refugees, and TPS (Temporary Protected Status) holders have been difficult to ascertain as this administration has not been forthright with accurate information. What we do know is that everyone that has been deported was not here illegally nor a criminal. Fear has been sown, lives have been destroyed and the social and economic impact is being felt here in the US and across the world.
Unfortunately, discrimination wields a broad brush. Immigrants aren't the only ones suffering. Everyday the poor and people of color are impacted by unfair housing practices, live amid food deserts, struggle with addiction, are victims of violence, earn poverty creating wages and graduate with a substandard education.
We must take a stand! We must disrupt systems that continue to dehumanize the poor and people of color.
Prayer
Spiritual Wickedness
Every Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. ET, we are hosting virtual prayer for our leaders, our nation, the vulnerable, and numerous countries across the world. What we are facing as a people and as a nation is SPIRITUAL. It is a battle that must be fought not just in the community, classroom, courtroom or Congress. It must be fought on our knees in prayer. We have been called to petition the Lord Jesus Christ on behalf of others.
We invite you to join us!

Economic Disparities
Through Para La Comunidad, MBM has responded to economic disparities in northern Mexico. La Haciendita's population has dwindled over the years as families have moved to urban areas seeking jobs and better opportunities for their children, Those who remain, desire to improve their economic and social status. We stand with them to support initiatives that will transform the community and promote sustainable development.
Unfortunately, economic injustice exists throughout the world. It is a by product of capitalism and is engineered through structural racism. Structural racism is prejudice against minorities in the form of a system in which public policies, institutional practices, and other norms are designed to perpetuate racial group inequity. Unfortunately, nonprofit organizations were created within the realm of racism and discrimination and woefully, many have adopted practices that are indicative of structural racism. They develop and design programs without community input. They make deals with the elite and ignore the contributions of the individual. They mismanage funds for personal gain while failing to create opportunities for systemic change. They work in silos and are inept when comes to systems thinking. Regrettably, for many, their aim is to maintain discriminatory cycles so they can continue to enhance their bottom line.
MBM is committed to providing training to nonprofits who desire to partner with the communities in which they reside. Communities need nonprofit organization and it is time that the Church reclaims its position! For more information on our program, The Great Connection, click here...
our commitment to children
not orphans
not orphans is an educational sponsorship program to provide access to uninterrupted quality education to vulnerable children. This program runs with the support of sponsors who make monthly donations. Sponsorship has allowed us to provide internet access, purchase computers, uniforms, and school supplies. We have also purchased air conditioning units, built staff bathrooms and annually make repairs at the Emilio Carranza school in La Haciendita. Because of this program, students can attend school and receive equitable instruction. To become a sponsor, visit our Donate page.
