Opportunities in Our Church,

Community and Beyond

Lay Ministry
“Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Sir, when did we ever see you hungry and feed
you? Or thirsty and give you anything to drink? Or a stranger, and help you? Or naked,
and clothe you?
When did we ever see you sick or in prison, and visit you?’ “And I,
the King, will tell them, ‘When you did it to these my brothers, you were doing it to me!’
Mt: 25:37-40
