Founded in 1995, Mercy Heart has been there for families making adjustments when loved ones are incarcerated. Matthew 9:36 says, "When He saw the crowds, He had compassion on them because they were distressed and helpless."
Mercy Heart is a vision born out of a need for the church to respond to the broken, discarded, wounded families and individuals in the crisis of incarceration. These are an unseen, largely ignored sub-culture of our society . . . those who exist just below the visible surface of society, in the shadows of our society. Without the hope of the gospel and inspiration of a personal physical touch they will pass without notice into the darkness of fear, loneliness and shame. .. More about Mercy Heart
