About Mercy Multiplied America

Mercy Multiplied of America, Inc. (the “Ministry”) is a Tennessee not-for-profit corporation whose mission is to provide opportunities for all to experience God’s unconditional love, forgiveness, and life-transforming power. The Ministry serves this mission in three ways: through Residential Counseling Programs, Outpatient Counseling Programs, and Outreach Services and resources.The Ministry’s Residential Counseling Programs are provided free-of-charge to young women ages 13 to 32 who are struggling with life-controlling issues and situations, including anxiety, depression, abuse, eating disorders, self-harm, addictions, unplanned pregnancy, and sex trafficking. These programs are voluntary, lasting approximately six months, and include biblically-based counseling and teaching integrated with life-skills training and educational opportunities. The goal is to help residents permanently stop destructive cycles, discover purpose for their lives, and become productive and thriving individuals. The Ministry currently has facilities in California and Tennessee.The Ministry also offers Outpatient Counseling Programs at the Mercy Multiplied Center for Wellness and Counseling in Louisiana and Missouri. This center offers a free-of-charge Outpatient Counseling Program to men and women ages 13 and older. In addition to its Residential and Outpatient Counseling Programs, the Ministry offers Outreach Services and resources based on the same biblically-based, life-transforming principles used in Mercy homes. These initiatives are designed for men and women ages 13 and older and seek to bring awareness to life-controlling issues, teach keys to lasting freedom, and share practical insights into helping others who are struggling. Our Outreach Services include workshops, videos, podcasts, discipleship training, content on the Ministry’s website, and other teaching materials for pastors, parents, and the community at large. The Keys to Freedom Retreat is also part of Mercy’s Outreach Services and helps guide people towards greater freedom in Christ. The retreat takes place on the Missouri property.
