Y3-303- Social Justice

Sermon synopsis: Some say that it is not our responsibility to help the poor; we must simply teach them the principles of God contained in the Bible and they will be blessed (in other words give them a fishing rod – not a fish).
Mother Teresa: “I was asked why I did not give a rod with which to fish, in the hands of the poor, rather than give the fish itself as this makes them remain poor. So I told them: The people whom we pick up are not able to stand with a rod. So today I will give them fish and when they are able to stand, then I shall send them to you and you can give them the rod.”
