"Whatever you did to the least of my brothers, you did it to me"
Mt 25:40
“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink”
The St. Teresa Center for the Works of Mercy is dedicated to providing free service to the poor in order to help restore and foster their dignity. The Center is a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to the corporal and spiritual works of mercy. We labor so that no one may go to bed hungry as a result of poverty in our locale.
The works of mercy are charitable actions by which we come to the aid of our neighbor in his spiritual and bodily necessities.

The Works of Mercy
Through the gift of the Works of Mercy, we serve our neighbors who are temporally and spiritually impoverished. “The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.”
- St. Teresa of Calcutta
