 Mercy Ministries is a nonprofit organization designed to meet the needs of young women ages 13 – 28 facing life-controlling problems such as eating disorders, self-harm, abusive relationship patterns, addictions, and depression.

We provide residential care, Christ-centered counseling and life skills training free of charge. The Mercy Ministries program is approximately six months and the goal is to have each young woman not only complete the program, but also to discover the purpose for her life and bring value to her community as a productive citizen.

Run for Mercy is an annual event designed to raise funds for the upcoming Mercy Ministries home outside Sacramento, California. This 22,000 square foot, 40-bed home is beautifully situated in Lincoln among a newly developed residential community.

Through Run for Mercy we want to raise awareness of the issues young women face today and involve people of all churches and denominations as well as businesses to help change the lives of hurting young women. For more information about Mercy Ministries visit: http://www.mercyministries....!
