Why Mercy?

Mercy is making a critical difference in the Northeast saving and changing lives. Mercy provides help, healing and hope. Through its ministries, the Mercy Community tends to the sick, feeds those who are poor, and shelters those who are homeless. And this is done with dignity, respect, and compassion.

Why now?

Mercy has always met the needs of the day, and today those needs are greater than ever.

Why you?

You have the power to save and change lives whether you live around the block in Albany, New York, or down the street in Portland, Maine. In these desperate times, you could provide hope -- a hope with dignity and compassion. Imagine all of the lives Mercy has changed, perhaps even your own. Now imagine how much more Mercy could do with your help.

    The Context

    In March 2010, the Institute of the Sisters of Mercy - Northeast Community held an Assembly. It was a wonderful gathering of Sisters of Mercy, Associates in Mercy, Companions in Mercy, and colleagues in Mercy.
