Father Nathan begins his series on the Catechism by walking the people through the Works of Mercy.
The works of mercy are charitable actions motivated by Christian love by which we help our neighbor obtain what he or she needs spiritually and materially. Instructing, advising, consoling and comforting are spiritual works of mercy, as are forgiving and bearing wrongs patiently.
The corporal works of mercy consist especially in feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, clothing the naked, visiting the sick and imprisoned, and burying the dead. The works of mercy are not optional but are absolutely essential to living the Christian life of holiness and goodness.(CCC2447)
