Over the past three months, Mercy Partners Formation work with ministry Boards has continued to return to a central question: Why? Why do Boards gather for Formation amid full agendas and complex responsibilities? Why does mission remain essential to governance? And how might Formation help Boards attend not only to what decisions are made, but to the spirit and processes through which those decisions are discerned?
We reflect on the Mercy Partners value of respect and explore how it underpins the compassionate, person‑centred support delivered across Mercy Community’s wide range of services, from aged care through to families and young people.
Each year, Mercy Partners brings together leaders from its nine education ministries for a dedicated leadership gathering that strengthens strategic relationships, facilitates the sharing of expertise, and promotes collaboration across the ministry network.
In March 2026, the Nudgee Trust Grant Round opened, and we are delighted to share details of the successful beneficiaries of the grants along with an overview of their exciting projects.
Sometimes in life we are given the grace to be an eyewitness – to be in the room when something quietly remarkable unfolds.
In this edition of our newsletter, we highlight the Mercy Partners value of compassion and how it is lived every day within our health ministry, Mater.
