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.
MERCY SEAT CHURCH HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE AS AN INTERDENOMINATIONAL NON-PROFIT RECOGNIZED BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE EFECTIVE AUGUST 15, 2012 AS A PUBLIC CHARITY EFFECTIVE AUGUST 15, 2012.

Rev. Bell 2022
Gracious and loving God, thank You that Your mercies are new every day.
-We struggle slipping and falling at times.
-We wonder what life is all about.
-In our daily work, at times, we see things that we would rather close our eyes to.
-Lord, let us remember we can dwell in You finding comfort and peace.
-You are always ready to forgive if we only ask.
-We doubt Your forgiveness asking have I done enough?
-We also Ask have I been good enough?
-You ask us to do our best, and You will do the rest.
-Thank You Lord Jesus for saving us.
And now we continue to pray in Jesus Name by the Power of the Holy Spirit. Amen
Lamentations 3.22-23 “The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning great is your faithfulness.”
James 3.17 “But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without a trace of partiality or hypocrisy.”
