SIDNEY The Mercy Mission House is closer to achieving its capital campaign goal.
The organization has raised 70% of the needed funds for the project. Part of those funds were used to purchase the property at 950 Childrens Home Road from the Full Gospel Church.
While the purchase was finalized this month, the Full Gospel Church will continue to provide services from the current location for the next six months as they build their new church. Both buildings, the church and the fellowship hall were part of the purchase.
