Congregation of the Sisters of Mercy
)
Mercy, the source of forgiveness,
healing and restoration,
and its preferential option for the poor
is the characteristic spirit of our Congregation.
Mercy is the call, the charism and heritage
which forms and reforms our lives.
It enables us, through the power of the Spirit
and in the name of the Church,
to reach out with courage and compassion
to Christ’s suffering members,
and to witness to the constancy
of God’s loving kindness in every age (Constitution 3)
