The Order also runs hospitals, medical centres, day hospitals, nursing homes for the elderly and the disabled, and special centres for the terminally ill . In many countries the Order's volunteer corps provide first aid, social services, emergency and humanitarian interventions. Malteser International, the Order’s worldwide relief service, works in the front line in natural disasters and armed conflicts. For over 40 years, the Order has been dealing extensively with the treatment of leprosy - a disease that unfortunately still plagues various areas of the world - through its CIOMAL foundation (Comite International de l'Ordre de Malte). CIOMAL is also involved in the fight against disease or handicaps and has launched programmes to assist mothers and children in the third world who suffer from AIDS. So, with this just 3 rather small example, not counting the millions others, on levels of Diocese, Parishes or even family bloc rosary groups, charity is prevalent and this grandiose project of building churches does not detract us from providing help and funds to the poor and needy. The building of this grandiose churches is a further testament of our Love for God and for his Glorification and that is why we willingly donate funds for the building of Churches. I can go on and on on this matter, but I find that Fat4 has a rather deluded sense on his concern for the poor and downtrodden, perhaps, if he is indeed so concerned over it, maybe he might considering to stop blogging, renounce the world and go off and help the poor by himself and make an impact rather than posting insensitve titles such as this which can create controversy and fault finding in others and which results in his total ignorance of what he or she is talking about.
