From the Pastor
Why Mercy Seat?
In the wilderness tabernacle of Moses, the mercy seat was the place where God met with man.
Exodus 25:22 states "And there will I meet with thee, and will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony."
It was there at the appointed time that God met with man, to engage him and speak or commune with him. It was there that the visible glorious presence (Shekinah) of God was revealed. Once a year on the Day of Atonement, the high priest entered into the Holy of Holies to offer blood on the mercy seat, thereby making atonement for the sins of Israel.
It was at the mercy seat that God met man at his greatest point of need. This is at the heart of Mercy Seat Ministries.
We believe that every need is met in the presence of God. The purpose of this ministry is to provide a place of refuge for those who have been forgotten and left out: A place of restoration and healing for those who are bruised and torn apart; an avenue of reconciliation for those separated from God. Broken hearts are mended, relationships are restored, the lost are claimed and the wounded healed as we commune together in the presence of God.
