Thoughts looking forward to 2013 trip

"Jesus tells us that, "Whatever we do for the least of these, we do for him."  In other words, Jesus is telling us that if we want to find him, we have to go to the hungry and thirsty, the naked, the sick, the prisons because that's where he hangs out.  In a sense, when we go to the poor , we receive far more than we give.  We might help build a house for them or provide medical supplies or serve food.  But they give us Jesus.  In preparing to go on this mission experience, expect nothing less than an encounter with Jesus."
