My little children, the cry of the poor comes up every day towards my Heart, and my Heart is afflicted at the sight of so much selfishness, avarice and profit which relegate the poor in an ever more debasing misery.
My little children, it is time for you to wake up, look at your brothers squarely and consider their suffering and their poverty.
If you do nothing for them, you offend God's Goodness, this God who watches over you and who loves you; this God who ask you to love one another and to love even more the poor and the neglected.
I am Mary, Mother of Mercy. I hold the poor and the sick fast to my Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart. I watch in a very special way over all those who dedicate themselves to their service.
Courage, confidence, patience and perseverance.
Pray a great deal with the Holy Rosary in your hand.
I bless you.
(Our Lady to Father Jean Marie, on December 14, 1994)

Fraternite Notre Dame's Religious people offer to some 500 poor persons from Paris neighborhoods a hot meal on a daily basis. For most of them, this is the only balanced meal, the only food they can get to survive…

Poverty, moral misery, diseases, homelessness, total confusion, this is the share of our guests, whom we regard as being Christ Himself, suffering and asking for a bit of charity, a little mercy.

The religious also perform visits to families and those in a hospital, along with a weekly food pantry service for poor families (the bags are adapted to each one's needs).
Results that derive from this are astounding, and particularly moving ones. Hope restores life, many are able to find a job anew, families are reunited, living standards are sensibly improved in a society rather bitter and aggressive toward life's less fortunate.
