Resource Web Page

MercyNet is developing a “Compassion Helps” website for anyone in a position to show mercy. The website is an answer to the question, “How do I help someone who is . . . (homeless, elderly, divorced, lonely, etc)?” See the prototype at www.iteacup.com/Resources/cHelps/. MercyNet is a Philadelphia ministry directed by David Apple, dapple@citynetphilly.org.
