Maputo, Mozambique - Lunch with street children on World Day of the Poor ...

The Community of Sant'Egidio and the poor.

"The cry of the poor: it is the cry of every Lazarus who weeps while the wealthy few feast on what, in justice, belongs to all. Injustice is the perverse root of poverty. Every day that cry gets louder, but every day heard less, drowned out by the din of the rich few, who grow ever fewer and more rich" (homily of Pope Francis for the World Day of the Poor's Mass).
