        The Least of These is a weekly radio program produced by HCJB, The
Voice of  the Andes in Quito, Ecuador, South America. The title of the
program comes from the biblical reference in Matthew 25:40 where Jesus
Christ said,
        "I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you
gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I
needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me,
I was in prison and you came to me.  Whatever you did for one of the
least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."
