The Churches of the so-called First World have associations dedicated to fighting poverty, which manifest a certain autonomy. The Bishops of the Dioceses that receive help are called to maintain and develop communion and dialogue with the Bishops of the countries that grant aid. This implies a task of vigilance that is not always easy to carry out.
El servicio de la caridad, que con razón concebís siempre unido al anuncio de la Palabra y a la celebración de los sacramentos, os llama y a la vez os estimula a estar atentos a las necesidades materiales y espirituales de los hermanos.
