Ed bullis
January 14, 1942 - November 16, 2020
Ed Bullis, the founder of Missions Ministries, went home to be with his Lord and Savior. His willingness to answer the call to go "Feed My Sheep" in Juarez, Mexico has impacted 1000s of individuals and families, built over 1000 homes, 5 churches, a clinic, and two libraries. God used Ed in a powerful way to join His people together through love, laughter and a lot of construction.

"One of the things our family appreciates most about Missions Ministries is their true commitment and involvement in the community. Missions Ministries relies on the pastors in the community to let them know where there is need. They use volunteers to help meet those needs, but also employ Mexicans from the community. We are simply invited to participate in the Kingdom work already happening."

45,000,000 mexicans live in substandard housing
According to a 2005 United Nations report, 45 million Mexicans are living in substandard housing. In Mexican border towns like Juarez the poverty is much worse. The average daily wage is around 176 pesos or $9.50 US. Employment opportunities are sporadic and often unavailable.
Those we serve are a people who have been oppressed, exploited, devalued and driven to a life of despair by a world system most often governed by self interest and corruption. Such despair creates the “perfect storm” for an escape into a life of crime, degradation and poverty.
why missions ministries?
For 20 years the people of Mexico have continued to migrate north to the border seeking jobs in factories. International companies built the factories to take advantage of cheap labor. These jobs require hard labor and offer little pay making survival difficult. With little government assistance, many live in houses made of wooden pallets and cardboard with dirt floors, no water or plumbing, and in extreme temperatures.
Yet the Mexican people are warm and faith-filled, welcoming and valuing relationships with their families, friends and mission teams. Since 1992 we have carefully cultivated relationships in the colonias. Many organizations swoop into areas like the colonias with ideas of the problems and how to fix them. Our approach is quite the opposite. Through our relationships with local pastors we are made aware of the needs of the community and work with them to provide lasting solutions.
Come experience a Missions Ministries trip! We can promise it will be an experience you will never forget.
