"The Ivory Coast we have only had seven years of war, but in other places it is more than that. Can we preach the Gospel today to someone who is hungry? Can we teach the Word of God to those who are hungry or enter into a house today and say: "The peace of the Lord be with you." Will these people who address the greeting of Christ from God, say to these people who are hungry, who are thirsty, who are suffering and dying of hunger, will they be able to answer me? I think not."
