For all you who are saying we have to give them burritos or we're starving Jesus, this is what Paul said to the Thessalonians about that.
"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing."
Don't quote Jesus at me, I was in a Christian commune for 4 years, married a pastor, read the Bible straight through 5 times including Deuteronomy and Judges, and can read the New Testament in Greek. Though now I prefer Buddha. Or Mother Kali.
