The Material Girl Champions the Gospel
 
Madonna’s theatrics during her recent concert tour have understandably drawn some criticism from Church officials.  Yet, her recent efforts to adopt an African child, albeit controversial, has drawn recognition from our leaders for highlighting the plight of the grave injustices that millions of innocent people confront daily.
 
The Catholic commissioner for peace and justice in Malawi recently discussed the ravages of poverty, AIDS, hunger, and environmental abuse and exploitation that deepens the strife of countless people in need.
 
The Catholic Church, along with other churches and relief organizations, works tirelessly to end these injustices and broadcast the need for help to the world.
 
How aware are we to the devastation of our sisters and brothers there?  See what one Church leader has to say.
