• Description: Mary's Mercy Center is a Gospel response to the less fortunate. It is a place where they find compassion and acceptance, regardless of their condition of life, and find services that meet their basic needs. Mary's Mercy Center attempts through its programs to build up and affirm the personal dignity and worth of each person that has been taken from him/her by poverty and the social ills of our times. Mary's Table provides a hot nutritious meal six days a week, including all holidays except Christmas Day. Meals are served to all who come regardless of their situation and no identification is required. After our guests are seated, volunteers serve them their coffee, ice tea, and/or milk. There are no limits on how many servings or how often they wish or need to eat. Over 8,000 meals are served each month. Our food comes from many different sources: almost all of our meat is donated; some food and all staples are purchased from food banks, stores and large corporations. We share food among our fellow non-profits when there is an over abundance. St. Martin de Porres Emergency Food Bag Program distributes food bags every Wednesday, except the first Wednesday of the Month. Approximately 1,200 families are helped each month. For those with a facility to cook the bags contain beans, rice, tomato sauce, bread, cereal, fruit, etc. For the homeless and unable to cook the bags contain canned foods, cups of soup, energy bars, peanut butter and jelly, fruit, bread and bottled water. No identification is required to receive assistance.
