Little Flower Mercy Home

Men's Home

In the annals of 1986, a pivotal chapter unfolded in the history of Mercy Home with the establishment of a men's residence. The genesis of this endeavour occurred when compassionate locals brought an old, ailing man to the doors of a simple mud house. Originating in a modest mud building, this haven for men has evolved into a sanctuary that currently shelters approximately 150 individuals. From its humble beginnings, the men's home at Mercy Home has grown to become a place of refuge, offering not only shelter but also a supportive environment for those in need. The transformation from a simple mud structure to a thriving residence reflects the unwavering commitment of Mercy Home to provide care, compassion, and a sense of belonging to those seeking refuge within its walls. Most of them are physically and mentally disabled. Many of them were found heavily neglected and begging in the street. As the number of patients seeking refuge at our facility continues to grow, the strain on our dormitory space has become increasingly challenging. The overcrowded conditions have created an atmosphere of congestion, causing discomfort for both those inside and outside the home as they witness the unfortunate plight of their fellow inhabitants. The overwhelming demand for accommodations has led to a pressing need for expansion and improved facilities. Despite the constraints, a silver lining emerges in the form of the residents' willingness to engage in occupational therapy activities. Many inmates express a keen interest in participating in tasks such as gardening, agricultural work, laundry, and cooking. This shared commitment to meaningful engagement not only provides a sense of purpose but also fosters a collaborative spirit among the community, offering a ray of hope amidst the challenging circumstances.
