School Supply Drive

You can make sure a child who has suffered abuse has the necessary supplies to start the school year off on the right foot. Your gift will help create smiles and give MJM children a greater chance of success in the classroom.

Holiday Gift Drive

Every Christmas season, MJM gives gifts to children who have become a part of the MJM Family. Many of our children have never experienced a typical Christmas morning filled with the excitement of opening gifts and experiencing the true magic of the season. By donating to our Holiday Gift Drive you can help sprinkle a little magic this holiday season for our MJM families!

Paloma

Support Methodist Justice Ministry by purchasing Rev. Brooks Harrington’s latest book, Paloma.  You can find it in hard copy or paperback at your favorite retailer or on audio at Kindle and Google Play and all proceeds benefit the mission of MJM.

Two people from very different backgrounds and circumstances struggle together to find God in a world of random injustice and human evil. Paloma has suffered bitter poverty and neglect as a child and exploitation and addiction as a teen and an adult. John Levi is a lawyer from a privileged, sheltered home who answers the call of God to pastor an inner-city church. Together, Paloma and John Levi hunger and thirst for justice and mercy for the neighbors of the church and for Paloma and her daughter. At first, Paloma is angered by any talk about the presence and power of a God whom she believes has failed to answer her prayers. John Levi is convinced that God is calling him to rescue Paloma from her plight but crosses a line in protecting her from evil men. Facing the consequences of his actions, John Levi struggles with the limitations imposed upon his hunger for justice by the Way of Jesus. Both Paloma and John Levi transcend the crisis to find a new faith.

No Mercy, No Justice

All proceeds from No Mercy, No Justice by Brooks Harrington benefit MJM.

In this book, Rev. Brooks Harrington draws on more than 42 years’ experience as a criminal prosecutor, a pastor of an inner-city church in an impoverished neighborhood, and the founder of a legal ministry protecting indigent victims of family violence and child neglect and abuse. Through moving stories of women and children he has encountered, he shows the terrible toll of the dominant narrative’s version of justice and mercy. And he offers Christians hope with new and startling insights into God’s justice and mercy revealed in the parables of Jesus.
