What We Do

Mike Brown Ministries, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created in November 2000, serves young people incarcerated in Tarrant County, providing spiritual support and guidance during a critical time in their lives. We exist to introduce them to God so they may find acceptance, forgiveness and hope in Him through Jesus Christ.


Mike Brown Ministries is governed by a volunteer board of directors and works in affiliation with NewDay Services for Children and Families.

A partial list of our services:

  • Teaching Bible classes to detainees 

  • Awarding Certificates of Achievement for good behavior in detention

  • Donating PrayerBears to children at Cook Childrenʼs Medical Center for the certificates awarded

  • Supplying teens with Bibles to take home when they are released from detention

  • 􏰀Coordinating special programs of spiritual growth for youth

  • Teaching character classes 

  • Praying with youth before hearings and throughout the day

  • Coordinating Bible studies with volunteer teachers
