Mercy Terrace Apartments, Erie, is a 64-unit complex providing modern, independent living accommodations for the elderly at a cost within their budget. Reads its mission statement: “Inspired by Jesus Christ, a model of compassionate concern for others, and enlivened by the spirit of Catherine McAuley, foundress of the Sisters of Mercy, who shared her house with those deprived of decent housing, we, the Sisters of Mercy, affirm each person’s right to secure affordable housing.” Opened in the spring of 1987, the goal of MTA is to meet the social, spiritual, physical and psychological needs of the residents in their housing and immediate environment.
