The Corporal Works of Mercy, as found in the teachings of Jesus, include feeding the hungry, giving drink to the thirsty, sheltering the homeless, visiting the sick and the imprisoned, burying the dead, and giving alms to the poor. Serving through doing the Corporal Works of Mercy teaches us to see Jesus in everyone, especially the poor. Potential activities could range from serving food in a soup kitchen, doing homeless ministry, or spending time with the elderly or forgotten.
