The corporal works of mercy:
feed the hungry
give drink to the thirsty
cloth the naked
offer hospitality to the homeless
care for the sick
visit the imprisoned
bury the dead
The spiritual works of mercy:
admonish the sinner
instruct the ignorant
counsel the doubtful
comfort the sorrowful
bear wrongs patiently
forgive all injuries
pray for the living and the dead
Peacemaking is not an optional commitment. It is a requirement of our faith.
