Extending the Compassion of Christ to a World in Need

At YLM, mercy is more than an emotion—it’s the heartbeat of our mission. Flowing from God’s endless love and mercy for us, it drives every food box we share, every prayer we lift, and every home we help build. Because He first loved us, we go where the hurting, the hungry, and the overlooked are, bringing compassion, dignity, and the true hope found only in Christ.

Why It Matters!

In a world often marked by hardship, we believe mercy makes the difference. It breaks down walls, restores dignity, and reminds people they are seen, loved, and never alone. When we extend mercy, we reflect the heart of God—and that transforms lives, communities, and futures.

🩵Acts of Kindness Change Lives🩵

01

Feeding the Hungry

Food insecurity is a growing problem in our communities of El Paso, Cd. Juarez, and into the depths of the Chihuahua sierra. Various partnerships provide us the resources needed to assist individuals and families in the communities where we have partnering missions and churches struggling to put food on their tables. 

02

Sheltering the Vulnerable

Guided by Christ’s mercy, we step in when people are most vulnerable—bringing shelter, relief, and the hope of renewal. 

03

Resources for Physical Needs 

We care for the physical needs of our community through Christ-centered compassion and strong partnerships, ensuring families and individuals are supported with dignity. 

04

Cross-Border Compassion

We boldly cross physical and spiritual borders to bring Christ’s mercy to hurting communities in Northern Mexico—supporting medical brigades, investing into partnering churches, delivering needed resources, and encouraging community members to carry on the Good News to their neighbors.  

05

Supporting Education 

We provide opportunities for students, in El Paso and Cd. Juarez, to thrive in school and be nurtured in their faith. By offering resources, scholarships, and guidance, we help prepare the next generation of leaders for the Church and community. 

06

Presence & Prayer 

Mercy often begins with presence—showing up, listening, and walking alongside those in need. Wherever God opens the door, our volunteers and staff bring prayer, support, and spiritual guidance to hurting hearts.
