Providing compassionate care for those at the end of life.
Our Mission
To offer comfort-based personal, emotional, and spiritual care to guests of Mercy House; to provide support for families and friends of guests; and to coordinate community education, engagement, and involvement.
Mercy House provides compassionate end-of-life care in a calm, peaceful setting. The physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of guests are addressed, and families and friends are comforted and supported.
Mercy House is an independent nonprofit and is the first home of its kind in Franklin County, serving members of the community and surrounding counties who cannot be cared for at home or don’t need to be hospitalized. Uniquely designed to manage end-of-life care, Mercy House employs specially trained and licensed caregivers who are attentive to individual needs. Partnering with area hospice agencies in creating comprehensive plans for holistic care, Mercy House is proud to be part of the movement to improve the end-of-life experience for individuals, families, and friends.
Our guests and their families often find themselves in unfamiliar and tender territory â moments where leaving a loved one's side simply isn't an option. In those sacred hours of uncertainty, something as simple as a snack or a warm beverage can be an unexpected and profound comfort.
That's why we've created the Mercy House Comfort Collection â a thoughtful gathering of nourishing items available to anyone keeping vigil beside someone they love.
If you'd like to help sustain these families during some of life's most precious and difficult moments, we've put together an Amazon wish list that brings practical comfort when it's needed most.
The Amazon Wish List for the Comfort Collection can be found at amzn.to/4a3ARhA .
Thank you for considering this meaningful way to care for our guests and the people who love them.

Each month, we honor a team member as our âðððŦððē ððððŦð ðĻð ððĄð ððĻð§ððĄââsomeone who exemplifies compassion and truly lives our mission every day.
Following the passing of a Mercy House guest, Julie went above and beyond when the guest's brother traveled from out of state to say goodbye. She sat with him, offering comfort and a compassionate presence during one of life's most difficult moments.
Julie's empathy and grace are a beautiful reflection of what Mercy House is all about â reminding us that sometimes the most meaningful thing we can do is simply be there. We are endlessly grateful for Julie and the gentle, caring heart she brings to Mercy House.

What a beautiful success! This year's Plant and Flower Sale exceeded every expectation â and it's all because of you. From our dedicated volunteers to every person who stopped by, made a purchase, or donated, your generosity directly sustains the mission of Mercy House. We are so grateful.
We are thrilled to share that this year's Plant and Flower Sale raised $15,697 in cash donations and in-kind gifts! None of this would be possible without the vision and generosity of Dr. David Kent and Dr. Anna Kent, whose dedication to this event has transformed it into one of our most cherished and meaningful yearly fundraisers. Thank you, Doc and Anna, from the bottom of our hearts.
A heartfelt thank you to our Premier Sponsor, F&M Trust, and our Blossom Sponsor, Valley Agency Insurance, whose generous support made this event possible. We are also grateful to Your Hometown Real Estate LLC for graciously lending us their truck â a small but mighty contribution that made a big difference behind the scenes. And to every volunteer, in-kind donor, and supporter: this event is yours as much as it is ours. Thank you.

How wonderful!!! Thank you everyone!!!! What a blessing!!!!ððð
There are no words big enough to describe how grateful we are for our Mercy House nurses.
Every single day, they show up with warmth, grace, and a love for people that is truly extraordinary. They hold hands, they comfort families, they bring peace to the hardest moments â and they do it all with such quiet, beautiful dedication.
Our guests are so lucky to have them. So are we.
