Welcome
Pastoral Care Counseling focused on love extended to all since creation.
Welcome to Mercy Seat
Exodus 37.6 God made a mercy seat (propitiatory" - specifically an atoning sacrifice, Jesus, 1 Jn 4.10).
CHRIST HAS COME, CHRIST HAS DIED AND CHRIST WILL COME AGAIN. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.
The LOGO PICTURE shown is a drawing by Rev. Sylvia Bell incorporating the concept of the Mercy Seat and the cross. Exodus 37:6 NISB, (6) "He made a MERCY SEAT (propitiatory - specifically an atoning sacrifice) of pure gold, two and a half cubits (the length of the forearm from the elbow to the tip of the middle finger usually 18 inches/46 centimeters) long and one and a half cubits wide. (7) He made two cherubim (angels - from the lowest to highest rank as follows: angels, archangels, principalities, powers, virtues, dominions, thrones, cherubim, and seraphim) of gold; he made them of hammered work at the two ends of the MERCY SEAT; (8) one cherub at the one end and one cherub at the other end; he made the cherubim of one piece with the MERCY SEAT at the two ends. (9) The cherubim had their wings spread upward, covering the MERCY SEAT with their wings, with their faces toward each other; the faces of the cherubim were toward the MERCY SEAT and John 1 4. 10."
In MERCY SEAT'S logo, I have placed the cross on the MERCY SEAT symbolizing Jesus Christ, our atonement with seven (7) rays of light emanating from the cross.
I invite your comments and will post new comments in a week - bellsylvia.mercyseat@gmail.com
"'And this is the judgment" (the critical moment), 'that the light is come into the world, and we loved the darkness rather than the light.'" (John 3:19)
Gracious and Loving God, thank You for bringing us through this week.
-This has been a week of many changes and events to be remembered.
-Hopefully, our memories of this week will bring joy to our hearts.
-Thank You for helping us to overcome.
-As believers in Jesus Christ, we are overcomers.
-Lord God, we thank You and Praise You for Your Love and Care for us.
-As we prepare for our weekend, we pray for comfort, peace and strength.
We pray in Jesus Name by the Power of the Holy Spirit. Amen
Psalm 23 “The LORD IS MY SHEPHERD: I shall lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over. Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the LORD’s house forever.”
2 Corinthians 8.9 “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.”
Love and blessings

Our Mission
Our Vision
Mercy Pastoral Care Counseling was birth from a statement made reference counseling services Chaplain Elder Reverend Bell was alleged to have given to two individuals as their pastor. She had knowledge of both individuals, but had never counseled either in any way other than perhaps their attendance in a worship service. From these speculations, she realized a deep desire and need in the community of faith. Mercy Seat Church and Pastoral Care Counseling was conceived by counseling that took place by the Grace of God without hands on office intervention.
There are many seeking a deeper relationship with our Creator, God or a Higher Power. They need someone who is willing to listen and provide an honest informed response. In that respect, as MERCY SEAT counselor, We seek to enlighten, as well as, promote healing and healthy living.
Our Goals
Mercy Pastoral Care Counseling through the leading of the Holy Spirit desires to extend the liberty of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as set forth in scriptures, theology, experiences and doctrine. We do not seek to present a one sided dialogue but an all inclusive dialogue spanning creation - past, present and future. This dialogue which is available to all comes through communion with Creator, God or a Higher Power through the revelation.
Mercy Seat began meeting in Rev. Sylvia Bell's home on October 10, 2010.

Take your evil deeds
out of my sight!
