Welcome to Divine Mercy Care.

Divine Mercy Care (DMC) is a pro-life 501(c)3 non-profit financial organization founded on the Jubilee Day for Life, October 1st, 2000. DMC sponsors non-profit healthcare facilities that uphold the dignity and morality of the human person. DMC performs spiritual and corporal works of mercy in northern Virginia and is currently located within the same premises of TepeyacFamilyCenter, LLC. (TFC) in Fairfax, VA.

DMC does not discriminate because of financial, racial, cultural, or religious preferences. Through community support DMC continues to expand and gain new contacts and contributors.

Our vision is to create a Catholic healthcare organization in Northern Virginia to provide a continuum of health services that includes acute care, long term care, home health services, medical education and to become interwoven in the fabric of our community and our culture.

Founding Principles

Healing: Believing that we are called to abundant life, our mission becomes the holistic healing of individual people, the family, and through them, society and the world community. Christ is the Divine Healer. Jesus is good medicine.

Service Excellence: Through the corporal and spiritual works of mercy, we allow the healing presence of Christ to permeate our delivery of care. We place the cutting edge of technique and technology at the service of the patient while integrating competence and compassion.

Reverence for the Person: Each and every person who is served by our organization, or works within our mission, is seen as an image and likeness, a gift of our God, deserving of respect, and utmost care and concern, from conception to death, with all their attributes. We discover the wonder of every person, His masterpiece, and seek to become the Employer of Life.

Family-Centered: The model for connectedness is the fact we are all members of the Mystical Body of Christ. We are a community of persons, nurturing and challenging each other to become who we are called to be.

Commitment to the Poor: We attend to those whom society has chosen to ignore, “the least of these my brethren,” the poor and the underserved.

Suffering: We are dedicated to the alleviation and/or the utilization of suffering as a means to personal holiness and wholeness. Placing ourselves at the foot of the Cross, we provide a means to give birth to works of love and a channel to become sharers in the redemptive suffering of Christ in order to help transform our community into a civilization of love.

Compassion: We observe a fundamental solidarity and empathy with the life situation of each and every person.

Stewardship: We pray for wisdom to utilize the talents and gifts which God has given us.

Catholic: All organizations and activities sponsored and endorsed by Divine Mercy Care will practice consistently with the teachings of the Catholic Church as enunciated by John Paul II; these truths are universal and open to all people. The Eucharist is the centerpiece of our spirituality. Divine Mercy is the source of healing, forgiveness, and rebirth.

Joy: Our Charism. We are joyful because we place our trust in Jesus. We have hope in His promise of abundant and everlasting life and the invitation to be with Him forever. This is the Good News.
