What are alms? What is almsgiving?
Jesus contrasts the giving of the rich and the poor: He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury.
The key is to find a cause that helps your neighbor in need through the corporal works of mercy feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, visiting the sick and imprisoned as well as burying the dead.
