Viva Mercy article on Green building features SXU; Sister Joy Clough, R.S.M authors piece

Read the article on Green Construction at three Mercy-sponsored organizations, “Green Buildings: Blending Principle and Practicality.”

This comprehensive piece appeared in the January/February bi-monthly Sisters of Mercy of the Americas publication Viva Mercy and was written by Saint Xavier University’s Sister Joy Clough, R.S.M., author of the book “First in Chicago: A History of Saint Xavier University.”

Her article focuses on “green building” as practiced by three organizations, each a leader and an example of much that is occurring in Mercy-sponsored ministries in the area of sustainable building.
