Roots
Mercy Vision was born out of a frustrated effort by isolated local churches to do mercy alone. There was a lack of resources, opportunities and PEOPLE when it comes to mercy ministry.
From this, churches in New Brunswick and other New Jersey cities began to meet together. They began discussing how their cities could be reached in a collective effort to display the gospel.
From these discussions came a vision for mercy for all churches and all cities. The conference is the result of these discussions. The goal of Mercy Vision to inform, mobilize and support God's kingdom in the gospel renewal of our cities.
