Mexican-American farm labor leader Cesar Chavez once was asked what the Church should do in order to help out struggling migrant farm workers.
Cesar Chavez responded:
"What do we want the Church to do? We don't ask for more cathedrals. We don't ask for bigger churches or fine gifts. We ask for its presence with us, beside us, as Christ among us. We ask the Church to sacrifice with the people for social change, for justice, and for love of brother. We don't ask for words. We ask for deeds. We don't ask for paternalism. We ask for servanthood."
It's all about servanthood.
Always.
