Chapter 10 The New commandment and the Works of Mercy pp 216-218, 220-221

The Corporal Works of Mercy

• Feed the hungry;
• Drink to the thirsty;
• Clothe the naked;
• Shelter the homeless;
• Visit the sick;
• Visit those in prison;
• Bury the dead.

The spiritual works of mercy are:

• Teach the ignorant;
• Help others do what is right;
• Give advice to the doubtful;
• Be patient with others;
• Forgive injuries;
• Comfort those who suffer;
• Pray for the living and the dead.

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Season of Lent. It is a season of penance, reflection, and fasting which prepares us for Christ’s Resurrection on Easter Sunday, through which we attain redemption.

Ashes are a symbol of penance made sacramental by the blessing of the Church, and they help us develop a spirit of humility and sacrifice.
