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)
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.

Rev. Bell 2022
Gracious and Loving God, we are grateful that You are so gentle with us.
-As I look back over the hard headedness of your chosen people realizing the corrections You placed upon them might make people think You are a Vengeful God.
-Like babies reaching for the fire, You continually had to direct them placing obstacles in their way for protection at time.
-Obstacles to correct and teach them.
-You showed others that You not only protect Your People, but You also discipline.
-Your word says there will be a time even knowing the truth humanity will continue to do wrong.
-We see the times unfolding.
-We pray, oh Lord, that we are heeding the corrective measures You have instituted for our protection and salvation.
-Help us be teachable stepping into the good plan You have established for each and every one of us.
We pray in Jesus Name, as we thank You, for sending him to save us. Amen
Exodus 32.1 “When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, ‘Come, make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, we don’t know what has happened to him.’”
Exodus 33.15 “Then Moses said to him, ‘If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.’”
Romans 8.32 “He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things.”
Love and blessings
Rev. Sylvia
