Mercy Moment
Our Mercy Moment is designed as a short pause for thought or moment of reflection each day.
Opening Doors is a comprehensive initiative that aims to develop relevant and meaningful in-person formation experiences and online formation resources for the Mercy global world. It is a collaborative effort that unites us all in our shared mission of Mercy, making each one of us an integral part of this journey.
