AS YOU HAVE DONE IT UNTO THE LEAST OF THESE For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me. Then the righteous will answer him and say, “Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? “When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?” And the king will say to them in reply, Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me. The 5 p.m. Vigil Mass this weekend is intended for the Missa pro populo (Mass of the parish people). The following collective intentions are offered on all other masses.
