To feed the
hungry
The water is the Holy Spirit by which we bathe our souls in the
Essence of God and are made ready for our missions and
purpose in life. This corporal work of mercy shows that you will
give not just a drink but a hope to the person you given to. Like
water, it is the reflection that will give a purest intention to the
person. We find that one can live much longer without food
than without the water so needed by the body.
- Orapa, Judy Rea
To clothe the
naked
To shelter the
homeless
To visit the
imprisoned
Prison can seem like a place not connected with our real lives until we
learn about someones son, daughter or other family member who is
behind it. No matter where we live or how much we earn, we probably
know someone with a family member in prison. Thats when it becomes
more real. The person convicted of a crime still needs support and love
from home, and receiving mail or visits when possible, are a key to that
support. We might support a prison ministry in our area with donations of
our time, money and/or needed supplies. I could offer a support to retreat
programs held in prisons.
