Rome on Friday local time and exchanged views with local leaders on how best to offer assistance to the needy.
Sun and Pao Tsung-ho (包宗和), another Control Yuan member, were greeted by Caritas Roma Director Enrico Feroci, who told the Taiwanese officials that there were more than 6,000 homeless people currently under its care.
Feroci said the concept of “redemption” originated from the East, but now he hoped that Western churches could offer their assistance to the less privileged in Asian and other less developed countries.
Caritas is an organization that shares the mission of the Catholic Church in serving the poor and promoting charity and justice throughout the world. [FULL STORY]
