MERCYhouse is a church in Amherst, Massachusetts that is home to community members and students from the Five Colleges. 

 

We'd love for you to join our family!

 

The Basics

MERCYhouse was started in Amherst, MA in 1999 by Joe Greene and Robert Krumrey in cooperation with The Baptist Convention of New England. You may be thinking, "How exactly do you start a church?" Well, we wondered that too until September 12, 1999.

 
 
 
 
 
 
Work with us tomorrow 9am-12pm! 💪 We have a range of building projects that need to be accomplished before building inspection day. All skill levels welcome!
Praise God! The team made it safely to Hawaii! Please pray for them as they settle in and get to work soon. We are expectant for God to do great things in and through this team and their time. 🙏
A little #tbt action for these Vday celebrations! • “Whether this Valentine’s Day finds you with the love of your life, surrounded by friends, or feeling alone... remember we have ONE who truly loves and nothing can take away His love.” • Facebook repost from February 14, 2018.
Today, Charlotte, 7 peers, and 3 chaperones (including our very own Tommy Moore!) took off for Oahu, Hawaii, to embark on their youth mission trip with the Quest program through the Baptist Convention of New England! They will be serving alongside the youth ministry of Hamama Community Church, on the windward or the “dark” side of the island, where conditions are mostly rainy and the area is economically challenged, getting a perspective of Hawaii that is rarely experienced by tourists or the affluent residents of the “sunny” side. • 🙏 Please be praying for Charlotte, Tommy, and the rest of the team! Pray for the team to be built up in love and to proclaim the mystery of the gospel with clarity and in power, both in their words and actions. Pray too for deeper revelation of God throughout their trip and for protection from the enemy and his schemes. Pray for the community to be impacted by the gospel and for the brothers and sisters there to be encouraged and strengthened by grace in fellowship with the team.

Has anyone ever asked you whether Jesus really died and rose from the dead? Have you ever wondered about it yourself? In this first episode of the MERCYhouse University (MHU) Podcast we start to answer these questions. Patrick leads a discussion of the events surrounding Jesus’ death, including his trial before Pilate, his death on a cross, and his crucifixion.

Thank you for all your prayers! Our youth and chaperones are back home safe and sound after a full weekend of meeting with Jesus and being challenged to follow him faithfully. Please continue to pray that we will set our mind on eternity rather than temporal things, especially as we return to daily life rhythms this week. #yec2019
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” John‬ ‭3:16‬ • Pray for our MERCYhouse Youth while they spend the weekend away at the Youth Encountering Christ (YEC) conference. Pray that they would truly encounter Christ as they explore the basics of the Christian faith in fellowship with teenagers from all across New England.
