Become Involved

Catherine McAuley followed Jesus by founding the Sisters of Mercy with a focus on serving others. Today there are many ways of walking in her footsteps - as a Sister of Mercy, as a Mercy Associate, by working in one of our ministries across Australia and Papua New Guinea or alternatively through supporting one of our advocacy initiatives or joining with us in prayer and reflection.

Prayer Room

Join the community of prayer supported by the Sisters of Mercy and all people of faith and goodwill who join in prayer here.

Become a Sister of Mercy

Being a Sister of Mercy is about answering God’s call in each moment of life and responding to local and global needs in many rich and diverse ways.

Become a Mercy Associate

Mercy Associates are people who cherish the virtue and practice of mercy in their lives and seek a faith community to nurture their commitment to mercy.

Become a Young Mercy Link

Young Mercy Links provides young adults with opportunities to raise awareness of social justice issues, engage with and educate the wider community.

Employment Opportunities

Much of the Institute’s work is administered through a dedicated team of people who work closely with ISMAPNG's Leadership to support our works and ministries.
