The Church's mission is not to solve poverty. In fact, Jesus said that we would
always have the poor with us (Mark 14: 7). The Church's mission is the salvation
of souls. When a crowd of people went searching for Jesus and found Him on the
other side of the Sea of Galilee, they said to Him, 'Rabbi, when did you come
here?' And Jesus answered them, 'Truly, truly, I say to you you seek me, not
because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. Do not
labour for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal
life, which the Son of Man will give to you; for on Him has God the Father set
His seal." The crowd said to Him, "What must we do, to be doing the works of
God?" And Jesus answered them: "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him
who He has sent." (John 6: 25-29).
