MERCY UK OVERVIEW

Mercy UK is committed to helping every Christian live free and stay free through deepening their relationship with God, self and others. 

Workingin partnership with local churches across the UK and Europe, our services include pastoral training, discipleship resources such as ‘Keys to Freedom’, and our free of charge support programme, launched in 2023 – the Freedom Course.

We look to address the root causes of issues individuals face, rather than merely medicating the symptoms or addressing the external behaviour. We want to see every Christian able to navigate their lives from a place of freedom, wholeness and understanding and as such we work in partnership with churches from every denomination, size and location across the UK and Europe providing our range of services.

We are a registered charity (number 1111377), a company limited by guarantee (number 5373315), a member of the Evangelical Alliance and Thirtyone:eight.
