Mercy Ministries



So I randomly stumbled upon this ministry from an add for a book. It seems like an amazing ministry they take girls free of charge in to these houses in a couple of different cities in the US and different places in The UK, Australia, New Zealand, Peru, and Canada. Basically it's for girls that have major things such as abuse, addiction, self harm, unplanned pregnancies, and eating disorders, along with other things. basically they help these girls deal with and get through these things and get back into the real world. They take absolutely no money from the government so that they are able to lead them to the Lord and make the focus of the program the Lord!!!


It's amazing! I totally have a heart for girls like this and the major that i have chosen in school would be perfect for something like this.

I thought it was a good ministry too until one of the youth leaders at church shared that she had been through the program and it did more harm than good. There was also extensive media coverage about abuse in their centres not long ago here is one link http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/they-sought-help-but-got-exorcism-and-the-bible/2008/03/16/1205602195048.html
