Anytime I encounter people from Mercy Street I am inspired and challenged. It was no different at this year’s Mercy Street’s Fundraiser Luncheon. This year’s luncheon was held in the super trendy Trinity Groves area that is just across the beautiful Margaret Hunt-Hill Bridge. The theme for this luncheon was Come to the Table. Many times relationships are built […]
It was a good time in the Mercy Street Cafe tonight. The Mercy Street Cafe was overflowing with middle school children who came for fun with friends, supper, and Bible study. This was the Living Stones and Men’s Class first time to visit Mercy Street since the new school year began. Some of the students […]
Trinity Groves was on my “Want to Do” list. There have been press releases, reviews, and blog posting about this new area across the Mary Hunt Hill Bridge in West Dallas. You cross the bridge, exit on Riverfront, and you are there. Phil Romano appears to have a successful beginning with the Restaurant Concept Incubator Program. Chefs […]

It had been too long since I last visited Mercy Street. I missed going in September, and I was excited to return. Once a month the Living Stones Bible Study Fellowship, and The Albers Men’s Class cross the Margaret Hill Hunt Bridge to take supper to the middle school boys and girls that attend Sunday […]
A few of the middle school children who are associated with Mercy Street in West Dallas went above and beyond this summer. Theu participated in a book study and earned a day and an evening of fun in Big D. For starters, these 9 students were treated to a limo ride through downtown Dallas. It […]
