Im not Morman, nor do I want to be, but I know the morman canneries do far more to help the poor, than many of the so-called Food Kitchens and federal programs do
What utter BS. If you think you can back that up, post some sources for the statement. FYI, members are told many times when applying for aid to contact the government agencies first.
"Latter-day Saint Charities, sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is an application of this admonition of Jesus Christ to help others in need. We have sponsored relief and development projects in 167 countries. This assistance is rendered without regard to race, religious affiliation, or nationality and is based on the core principles of personal responsibility, community support, selfreliance, and sustainability.
Unique in its support structure, Latter-day Saint Charities has access to the resources of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which include food production and processing, grain storage, vocational rehabilitation, donated used clothing, and employment and social services. Largely run with volunteer labor, Latter-day Saint Charities operates both independently and in cooperation with other charitable organizations and governments. Last year, over one million mandays of labor were contributed by volunteers in support of welfare initiatives.
Latter-day Saint Charities provides emergency relief assistance in times of natural disasters. In addition, our primary community development programs include clean water, neonatal resuscitation training, vision care, wheelchairs, immunizations, food production, and other health programs.
The assistance we render is made possible by generous donations of cash and inkind materials from members and friends of the LDS Church."
And no, I am not a Mormon.

Can you back that up?
“What utter BS. If you think you can back that up, post some sources for the statement. FYI, members are told many times when applying for aid to contact the government agencies first.”
and the sources for your “utter BS” statement suggesting otherwise? more religious intolerance exemplified by another Freeper. please enlighten us on your religious affiliation and what it does for others, and don’t forget to provide verifiable sources for their help to the poor. i’m sure others will want to check your church out for their good works as opposed to the supposed same of the mormon church.
We’ve know all along that the liberals would have a field day with Mitt’s religion and they wouldn’t even have to tell a single lie to do it. Just quote mormonism’s own sources.
