One of our wonderful volunteers and community partners, Yolanda, opened her home to our families and staff for an end-of-summer, back-to-school pool party.

Everyone enjoyed swimming, grilling and spending time together before the start of another school year. Thank you, Yolanda, for your kindness, generosity and hospitality

At The Well of Mercy, home is more than four walls—it’s a place where healing begins. 💛

Mothers and their children receive a safe home, loving support, childcare, education, and the opportunity to build a brighter future. Every donation, volunteer hour, prayer, and act of kindness helps our families move forward.

Together, we help mothers and children come home, heal, and thrive. 🏡

We are incredibly grateful to People’s Church for helping The Well of Mercy with a wonderful service project this past weekend! 💛

More than 20 volunteers came together to clean our backyard, plant beautiful flowers, spread mulch, organize the children’s toys and our eBay area, and pray over our residents and staff.

Their kindness, hard work, and joyful hearts brought so much love to our home. Thank you, People’s Church, for blessing our families and showing us what it means to put faith into action! 🏡🌸🙏
