Today's Mercy Quote
It is my hope and prayer that after the period of darkness and winter has accomplished its purpose, we shall see the bright promise of another spring.
Catherine McAuley
Catherine McAuley was born in Dublin, Ireland, in September, 1778. In 1824 she used her inheritance from an Irish couple she had served for twenty years to build a large House of Mercy on Baggot Street, Dublin in response to the needs of the poor of Dublin. Today that house is known as Mercy International Centre and is home to the Mercy family from all over the world.
