Want to know more
about Sisters today?
Contrary
to popular opinion, we don't all look
alike!
Who are
we? Why are we different?We're Sisters of Mercy and in many ways we're not as different as you might think. We can be young, middle-aged, or seniors; enthusiastic or stubborn; fun-loving or reserved; thin, or well, not thin; athletic or studious, or both. We come from many different countries and ethnic backgrounds. And although some of us are teachers and nurses, some are doctors, hospital CEOs, artists, musicians, counselors, lawyers and television program hosts. Because we don't wear a habit anymore, women religious are in your midst and you don't even notice us since the vocation to be a nun isn't visible. Our professions don't distinguish us, our vows as women religious do. We've made a conscious decision to give ourselves totally to the service of others — in caring for the sick, the uneducated and the poor, especially women and children. Sure, we sacrifice, but the gospel truth is that the rewards of our labors come back to us one hundred-fold. Do we have any other distinguishing characteristics? Sure. We didn't make the decision to become Sisters of Mercy or nuns as a second choice. It was our first! We think we have excellent reasons to invest our time working on behalf of others. Considering a change? Have you put your "calling" on "call waiting." Why not call us? 1-866-HAV-MERCY
