The Mercy Center & Campus Ministry

Mission Statement

Following in the footsteps of Catherine McAuley and motivated by the corporal and spiritual works of mercy, the Mercy Center strives to achieve greater understanding of ourselves and others through opportunities for personal and spiritual growth and selfless acts of service. Welcoming people of all faiths, we recognize and embrace the dignity of every individual, fostering a joyful community united by heartfelt compassion. 

The Mercy Center is located on the first floor of the Heffernan Center, and is adjacent to the Healy Chapel. You are always welcome to visit!
