Mercy Week 2025

Mercy Week


On Sept. 24, 1827, in Dublin, Ireland, Catherine McAuley founded a home to shelter and educate young girls. This house would be the foundation for the Sisters of Mercy — and for 17 U.S. colleges and universities, including ours.

Each September, we celebrate this heritage during Mercy Week to coincide with the Feast of Our Lady of Mercy.

A list of Mercy Week events will be posted soon! See last year's events here.
