Sisters of Mercy Regional Community of North Carolina Mercy Overview Regional Community Sponsored Ministries Sisters Today ... Weekly Reflections HISTORY: The Sisters of Mercy Regional Community of North Carolina originated from the Sisters of Charity of Our Lady of Mercy (OLM), which was founded in Charleston, SC, in 1821 by Bishop John England to teach young children, instruct slaves, and to care for orphans, the sick and the infirm. In 1862, three sisters went to Wilmington, NC, for four months to nurse the victims of yellow fever, and later returned to Charleston. In 1869, Cardinal James Gibbons (then Bishop Gibbons, shown at left requested that the sisters found a convent in Wilmington, NC, “to instruct the young and perform those duties of Mercy for which they are so well adapted.” The Academy of the Incarnation, a school for that purpose, was established soon after in Wilmington. See photo at right. Later, at the request of Abbot Leo Haid, OSB, of Belmont Abbey, three women religious — Sister Mary Augustine Kent, Sister Mary Baptist Sheehan and Sister Mary Charles Curtin — moved to Belmont, NC, in 1892 where they established a boarding and day school (shown below) and built a motherhouse. In 1913 the sisters became affiliated with Catherine McAuley’s Sisters of Mercy. Coincidentally, the OLMs also made foundations in Savannah, Georgia, and White Sulphur Springs, Arkansas, both of which later affiliated with the Sisters of Mercy.

WELCOME MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT VISITORS INFORMATION ENTRY REQUIREMENTS ... PEOPLE CULTURE GOVERNMENT WHAT'S HOT FSM INFODESK CONTACT FSM ... LINKS CULTURE he people of the FSM are culturally and linguistically Micronesian, with a small number of Polynesians living primarily on Nukuoro and Kapingamarangi atolls of Pohnpei State. The influence of European and Japanese contacts is also seen. It can be said that each of the four States exhibits its own distinct culture and tradition, but there are also common cultural and economic bonds that are centuries old. For example, cultural similarities are evidenced in the importance of the traditional extended family and clan systems found on each island. Although united as a country, the people are actually a heterogeneous mixture with different customs and traditions bound together by recent history and common aspirations. The cultural diversity is typified by the existence of eight major indigenous languages, and its peoples continue to maintain strong traditions, folklore and legends. The four states of the FSM are separated by large expanses of water. Prior to Western contact, this isolation led to the development of unique traditions, customs and language on each of the islands.

WELCOME MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT VISITORS INFORMATION ENTRY REQUIREMENTS ... DIVING HISTORY PEOPLE CULTURE GOVERNMENT WHAT'S HOT ... LINKS HISTORY he FSM has a rich history dating back several thousand years. The islands were originally settled by ancient people sailing east from Asia and north from Polynesia . Later discovers and settlers included the Spanish, Germans, and Japanese and evidence of their former presence is found throughout the islands. Following the trusteeship under U.S. administration after W.W. II, the FSM is now independent and self-governing. Most linguistic and archaeological evidence indicates that the islands were first discovered and settled between two and three thousand years ago . The first settlers are often described as Austronesian speakers possessing horticultural skills and highly sophisticated maritime knowledge . These first settlers are thought to have migrated eastward from Southeast Asia to Yap. From there, some migrated south to Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and New Caledonia, and later to Kiribati and the Marshall Islands. The oral histories of the Micronesian people indicate close affiliations and interactions in the past among the members of the island societies comprising the present-day FSM. The Lelu ruins in Kosrae (1400 AD) and the Nan Madol ruins of Pohnpei (1000 AD) are impressive reminders of the accomplishments of these early peoples.

Solomon Islands Introduction The regional delegation kept up its relations with National Societies and governments in the region to encourage adhesion to the Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols by those Pacific States which had not yet done so. In September the Federated States of Micronesia acceded to these treaties, which were ratified by Palau's parliament in August. At the end of the year, however, the relevant instruments had not yet been deposited with the Swiss government. Other topics of discussion included the 1980 UN Weapons Convention, the ICRC's activities worldwide and the 26th International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent. The ICRC also offered support to the National Societies in their efforts to promote knowledge of and respect for humanitarian law. Australia The regional delegate conducted six missions to Australia in the course of the year. He discussed the ICRC's activities and mandate with members of the Australian Red Cross Society (ARCS), the Federation's representative in Sydney, reporters from radio and television stations, and members of the written press.

Annual Report Annual Report Manila, regional delegation (Australia, Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Nauru, New Zealand, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Western Samoa and the other island territories of the Pacific) The regional delegation in Manila changed its structure somewhat in 1996 with the addition of a part-time ICRC representative for the Pacific, based in Fiji. The newly appointed representative was active primarily in promoting knowledge of and compliance with international humanitarian law across the region, thus leaving the Manila-based regional delegate more time to concentrate on the Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Australia and New Zealand. Both the Fiji-based ICRC representative and the regional delegate travelled extensively in the south Pacific to maintain contacts with governments and National Societies. In July the regional delegate took part in the Pacific Red Cross Societies' VIIth Programme Meeting, in Western Samoa. Like all ICRC delegations, the Manila delegation worked to promote adherence to the various instruments of international humanitarian law by the States within its region. In June, Palau acceded to the four Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols. In July, the Philippines ratified the 1980 UN Weapons Convention and three of its four Protocols.
