Dear CMCS Men and Friends,
Ww want to inform you that once again we’ll be pausing our writing for the CMCSMEN Blog and Catholic Man Moment during the month of July. This break serves as a perfect opportunity to rest, reflect, and prepare for our return. Throughout July, we will share some cherished reflections from the past year, as well as selections from our archives. Whether they’re a first-time read for you or worth revisiting, we hope they inspire and uplift you. We’ll resume new reflections in August. Thank you for being a part of our community, and may your summer bring you moments to slow down and connect with God.

One way to express love for one's neighbor is to perform the "works of mercy," which get their name from the fact that they are not duties in justice. There are fourteen such works, seven spiritual and seven corporal.
The spiritual are:
To convert the sinner;
To instruct the ignorant;
To counsel the doubtful;
To comfort the sorrowful;
To bear wrongs patiently;
To forgive injuries;
To pray for the living and the dead.
The corporal works are:
To feed the hungry;
To give drink to the thirsty;
To clothe the naked;
To shelter the homeless;
To visit the sick;
To visit the imprisoned;
To bury the dead.
