"For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink,
I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing,
I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me...
just as you did it to one of the least of these... you did it to me"
(Matthew 25:35-36)
