Mercy Indonesia Foundation’s mission is to restore the lives of orphans and vulnerable children throughout Indonesia and to
raise them as Disciples of Christ and as future leaders of their generation.
OUR HISTORY
Mercy Indonesia Foundation was started on May 10th, 2001
when an unwed mother gave away her three-day-old baby boy
to Paulus and Marliesye Wiratno. Two weeks later another
woman contacted them, hoping they would take care of her
baby too. The story went on and more unwanted and
abandoned babies were given to the young couple. Realizing
the need to rescue babies and orphans, and feeling the call of
God, Paulus and Marliesye started a foundation called Mercy
Indonesia.
Ever since, Mercy Indonesia has expanded by building and
overseeing Kinships throughout the Indonesian islands.
Working closely with the international organization, Kinship
United, we established a network of Kinships and other ministry
centers in West Timor, West Sumba, Central Java, and Aceh.

OUR SUCCESS
Since the first of our Kinships was formed over a decade ago, we watch with gratitude as many of our children now reaching their adulthoods
are eager to stay close to the Ministry and give back utilizing their talents, skills, and leadership training working for us.
Some become great caregivers in our homes by personally relating to many issues, while others utilize their talents by becoming core team
members for our Ministry’s further outreach on Bali.
