520 |a This article has two main aims. It shows that the members of confraternities gained merit by dispensing the works of corporal mercy identified in Matthew 25, 42-43; their almsgiving made them pleasing to God and reduced their days in purgatory. Charity, though, is beneficial both to the donor and the receiver. The poor are helped materially in their indigence but the basic welfare, with which the brothers of companies provide them, preserves them from sin, imperiled by the ignorance that poverty brings. The article is based on several sources but especially on the archives of the confraternities. If most of them are today defunct, their records are on the whole well-kept.
