The Church must support the poorest and most vulnerable. However, despite her ability to address immediate needs (for example, through soup kitchens, homeless shelters, and other forms of outreach), the Church cannot singlehandedly eradicate hunger, homelessness and other forms of poverty from our world. Politicians need to act, and to encourage them to do so, dialogue is necessary. The Church’s social doctrine is a valuable resource that has the potential to make a real difference in our world if it were to be consistently put into practice.” Towards the Second Session of the Synodal Assembly (October 2024)
