2010 Mercy Today Mission Partnership Report

Sister Mary Reilly’s vision has changed countless lives – see Sisters of Mercy of the Americas - Northeast Community story on page 3. page 1 Catherine McAuley’s Legacy Mercy Today

AS AN UPPER-MIDDLE-CLASS WOMAN living in 19th century Ireland, Catherine McAuley could have lived an ordinary existence. But when she looked around and saw hungry children, exploited women, and sick people living in poverty, she could not stand by and do nothing. In- spired by the Gospel and strengthened by her faith in God, Catherine set out to right these wrongs. Little did she know that in so doing she would found the Sisters of Mercy, a congre- gation of women religious who would not only survive, but thrive over 150 years after her death. The world has changed dramatically since Catherine’s time, but her sisters’ dedication to persons in need has never wavered. What made Catherine’s approach so extraordinary that she inspired thousands of women to follow in her footsteps? What makes her legacy relevant today? Catherine felt strongly that “the poor need help today, not next week.” This sense of urgency moved her to provide people with immediate relief, such as food and shelter. But as a problem solver, Catherine also sought long-term solutions. She understood that teaching people basic skills would enable them and their children to leave poverty behind. And since Catherine saw the face of God in each person she encountered, her works of mercy did not discriminate. Above all, she acted with love and tenderness that brought dignity to those she served. Sprung from the seeds of Catherine’s vision, hard work and abiding trust in God, the Sisters of Mercy have consistently been attuned to the signs of the times and have been at the forefront of responding to them. Sisters have nurtured, clothed, counseled and housed countless individuals. Sisters have educated and inspired generations of professionals who have in turn made major contributions in all walks of life. Sisters have worked in collaboration with others to influence policies that have helped to bring about positive systemic change. Today, the Sisters of Mercy continue to urge themselves and others to advocate for the voiceless in the world. Like Catherine, as long as there is a gap between the rich and the poor, the sisters will be there to create a bridge.

page 2 Northeast Community Leadership

Dear Friends of Mercy, It is an exciting and challenging time for the Sisters of Mercy - Northeast Community. As we look back over the past four years, we see that we have made strides in our ministries through the consolidation of our efforts. Countless individuals have been nurtured, clothed, counseled, housed and educated. We are grateful to all who have partnered with us through their prayers, services and donations. Now, the Sisters of Mercy - Northeast Community has set a goal to raise $1,000,000 during this fiscal year. If our Mercy legacy is to continue, we must look to our friends, like you, to partner with us in our ministries among people in need during this time of economic crisis, violence, poverty and threats of terrorism. We are confident that the gift-giving of individuals, corporations and foundations will help us to achieve this goal. Our works are only made possible by the generosity of donors. As we strive to care for our aging and infirm members, we resolve to carry on our various min- istries in service to people in need. In so doing, we recognize the need to strengthen our relationships with our partners who will help to safeguard our Mercy spirit and works now and into the future. Your support of Mercy today is an investment in a better world for persons who are poor, sick and uneducated, and especially for tomorrow’s children. Together, through great and small gifts, Mercy ministries throughout the Northeast will be made possible. We pray in gratitude for your partnership with us. Please keep us in your prayers and ask God to bless our Mercy ministries and render them fruitful. God bless you and all those you love.

LISA G. CHURCHVILLE, president and general manager of WJAR, received the 2010 Governor’s Award for Service to Rhode Island. The award was presented at “A Celebration of Mercy,” a fundraising event hosted by the Sisters of Mercy on April 16, 2010. Lisa re- ceived the award for her commitment and service to the Rhode Island community through her personal and professional life. Lisa has volunteered her time with the Sisters of Mercy as a committee member and chair of past Celebration of Mercy events. She has also served on the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce and has worked on behalf of the Providence Public Library and the Rhode Island Philharmonic. She is on the board of Women & Infants’ Hospital, John Hope Settlement House, and Tides Family Services. The event raised over $60,000 to help support the Sisters of Mercy and their ministry work. Over 160 guests celebrated with Lisa and enjoyed a presentation by girls from St. Mary Academy - Bay View’s robotics program, a ministry sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy. Following the reception, guests were invited to attend a performance of A Bronx Tale at the Providence Performing Arts Center.

Gift Report • page 1 Karen Bachus, Legacy Society Member Mercy Today

KAREN BACHUS BELIEVES that the Sisters of Mercy transformed her life. When you ask her about her long association with the sisters, she smiles and speaks warmly about her experi- ences. Karen once considered entering the Community. Her experiences through that process and during her formative years shaped her personal philanthropic philosophy. The Sisters of Mercy educated Karen from an early age. Following graduation, she was a campus minister and religion teacher at Bishop Feehan High School in Attleboro, Massachu- setts – a Mercy school at the time. Many sisters have been both mentors and close personal friends to Karen. In fact, she credits the sisters with her long professional career of helping others. Karen currently works as a child protective investigator at the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families, but started her career as a family therapist, social worker and investigator, emergency services The Mercys have made clinician, and clinical psychologist. such a huge difference “The Mercys have made such a huge difference in my life,” she says. “I would not be where in my life. I would not I am today without their influence on my life.” Karen gives because “it feels good to give back.” be where I am today The Legacy Society of the Sisters of Mercy - Northeast Community allows Karen to make without their influence a much larger gift upon her death than she would be able to do in her lifetime. That is exactly on my life. why she is a member of this very important society. “The Mercys do their darndest to bring about the kingdom of heaven on Earth through peace and justice. They are there wherever there is a need. The Mercys are the best!” Karen exclaims.
