Mercy Ministries - Ethos

Ethos

Whilst the Mercy Ministries website states they are a non-denominational Christian organisation, Mercy Ministries are also considered to be evangelical, charismatic and fundamentalist, both as an organization and in their approach to treatment.

The Mercy Ministries website states that the founder, Nancy Alcorn, established the following three financial principles for the program:

  1. Accept girls free of charge;
  2. Give at least ten percent of all donations to other organizations and ministries; and
  3. To not accept any state or federal funding as it interferes with the freedom to share Christ.

Famous quotes containing the word ethos:

    Reading more than life teaches us to recognize ethos and pathos.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Take the serious side of Disney, the Confucian side of Disney. It’s in having taken an ethos ... where you have the values of courage and tenderness asserted in a way that everybody can understand. You have got an absolute genius there. You have got a greater correlation of nature than you have had since the time of Alexander the Great.
    Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
