They have mentioned this at my church. While it’s noble to help all people in need as Christ commands, we shouldn’t forget those down the street from us. We work a lot with the local elementary school, food kitchen, pregnancy center (helping mothers who keep their babies), etc. But yes, we can’t be going across the world while ignoring our own community. I don’t see anything wrong with helping people in other parts of the world but those in need down the street are often ignored. I know I could do more

I think both can be done
