"Though the people are poor in terms of development and financial security, they are very rich in their faith. Our people are longing for the Word of God and the Sacraments. If our people are not fed by the Word and the Sacraments and strengthened in their Catholic faith there is the danger that many more will leave the Church to join other denominations or cult groups."
