The Corporal Works of Mercy are found in the teachings of Jesus and give us a model for how we should treat all others, as if they were Christ in disguise. They are charitable actions by which we help our neighbors in their bodily needs (USCCA). They respond to the basic needs of humanity as we journey together through life.
At Only God Ministries, we believe in performing the
Corporal Works of Mercy.

The Spiritual Works of Mercy have long been a part of the Christian
tradition, appearing in the works of theologians and spiritual writers throughout history. Just as Jesus attended to the spiritual well-being of those he ministered to, these Spiritual Works of Mercy guide us to help our neighbor in their spiritual need (USCCA).
