History

House of Mercy began as a prayer ministry with Kellie Ross and Fr. Jack Fullen in 2005. Kellie and Fr. Jack quickly saw the need in our area for the most basic necessities like food and clothing. They decided to expand those much needed services because of their Catholic faith. They wanted to show people the love of God through providing food, clothing and other items to help people not just survive, but thrive.
