WE HOLD YOU IN PRAYER

As a Mercy school, our Catholic Identity is a vital component of our mission. Holy Week is the anticipated conclusion of our Lenten journeys. Maybe we are eager to reconnect with things we have set aside in the spirit of sacrifice. Maybe, as much as we wished to, we didn't have much time to give to Lent this year due to circumstances in our lives. Wherever you are in your experience of Lent this year, we hold you in prayer and wish you a time of peace as we prepare to celebrate the Risen Christ. You can find Holy Week liturgical schedules and events throughout the Archdiocese here. We hope all Mercy families enjoy a relaxing break and blessed Easter!

OFFICE OF MISSION & MINISTRY

Teacher of the Year Mass

All Mercy parents/guardians are invited to join us for our Teacher of the Year Mass on Friday, April 12 at 10:15am. Worship with us as we award and celebrate our 2024 Teacher of the Year!

Yearly Service Awards

Our Mercy Day of Celebration on May 23 will be here before we know it! Mission and Ministry will award Service Awards to all students who have achieved 100 hours of service. These hours are cumulative during their time at Mercy and are incremental (100, 200, 300, etc). Students should log these hours into their Mobile Serve account. For 10th - 12th graders, all service hours that were turned in during previous academic years have been imported into Mobile Serve. Mobile Serve accounts need to be updated with service hours by May 1st. Any hours earned after May 1st will count for the following academic year. Please reach out to Mrs. Bennetts if you have any questions.
