Online Registration
Registering in the parish is more than paperwork. It's an expression of faith and belonging, making it clear that this is your spiritual home. It ensures accurate sacramental records and makes it easier to receive the sacraments of initiation and marriage. Registering in the parish is also a primary requirement to receive a letter when you are asked to serve as a godparent or sponsor.
It also helps our pastor and parish staff to know you personally and plan more effectively for ministries, education and outreach. Most importantly, it shows a commitment to walk together as a community of faith.
If you have not registered, we encourage you to do so. Forms are also available in the gathering area.

Sacristan Meeting & Potluck
Have You made a New Year’s Resolution to Join a Mercy Ministry? A Sacristan is responsible for setting up the Sanctuary (Altar, Credence Table, etc.) in preparing the vessels and other items used for the celebration of the Mass. Some ministry members who feel called to wash and iron the linens used for Mass are part of the Altar Linen Society. Both branches of this important ministry work are performed in serving our Lord and parish by preparing for a Mass and for caring for items used afterwards. Any Confirmed Catholic interested in learning more about becoming a Sacristan and/or Altar Linen Society member, please contact sacristan@mercyparish.church and join us January 24th at 6:15 pm for our meeting and potluck.

Most Merciful Jesus I thank you with all my heart for giving me Yourself in this Holy Eucharist; body, blood, soul and divinity.
May this precious gift enlighten me with the power to be your Mercy.
O Sacrament Most Holy, O Sacrament divine, all praise and all thanksgiving be every moment thine.
Most Merciful Father,
We thank You for Your unconditional love and infinite mercy. We turn to You with grateful hearts for bringing us from far and near and uniting us as Your loving family.
We pray for your blessing and guidance as we continue to build your Kingdom at Mercy parish. Give us a spirit of cooperation, and a generous sacrificial heart. May all those who support this mission find Your constant protection. Inflame us with the fire of your love so that we may become instruments of your Mercy to all Your creation. Humbly we pray through the intercession of our Blessed Mother and Your Beloved Son Jesus Christ our Lord
– Amen.
Most Merciful Jesus -- Have Mercy on us.
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament of the altar. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You Sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart ... I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
