Nga mihi atawhai – greetings to all in Mercy! Pope Francis has helped to shape our agenda by naming 2015 as the Year of Consecrated Life, with a focus on how religious sisters, brothers and priests enrich the life of the whole church. He has called on all religious to ‘wake up the world’ through the witness of their faith, holiness and hope.

Sisters of Mercy and those engaged in their ministries are being invited by Mercy International Association to respond to the pope’s call by taking his message to heart.
