Graduates' Luncheon

On behalf of our 62 graduates and our entire Mercy Home family, we would like to thank everyone who helped to make our eighth annual Leader Council Graduates' Luncheon on May 26 a success. We are honored by keynote speaker Alex Kotlowitz, our Leader Council members and everyone who joined us in celebration of the academic achievements of Mercy Home's young people, and for the ongoing support and encouragement our children receive toward fulfilling their academic potential.

Our graduate speaker, Jon, faced tremendous challenges before coming to our Home. Now, however, he is preparing to graduate from high school, and will major in film when he attends college in the fall.

"Because of everything I learned at Mercy Home, I know the word ‘impossible' is nothing," he said. "And nothing is impossible."
