"First Love": St. Anthony of Padua TORC Outreach

"The bread which you do not use
is the bread of the hungry;
the garment hanging in your wardrobe
is the garment of him who is naked;
the shoes that you do not wear
are the shoes of the one who is barefoot;
the money that you keep locked away
is the money of the poor;
the acts of charity that you do not perform
are so many injustices that you commit."
(-- St. Basil the Great, circa 300 AD)
