This is not wedding related but I am so SICK of people showing pictures of the Vatican and the other beauty of the Catholic Church, then juxtaposing that with a picture of a starving child in Africa, implying that all our funds go toward beautification and none toward charity. In response to one of these postings on Facebook, I cut and pasted a link to Mother Teresa's Calcutta Center and to the Catholic Relief Services...but I know somewhere I heard/read that the Catholic Church gives more money and services than any other organization in the world. I just can't find the data anywhere. Can anyone help?
I have no desire to pound someone over the head with this, but I just want to be one voice trying to set the record straight. I know I used to believe these things myself, until I became Catholic and got the facts...people can do what they want with it, but I want to at least put it out there.
Ruff!
Thank you!
