He added that the newly-opened вЂњPalace for the PoorвЂќ still offers a warm bed and breakfast for those who come calling. We even give out sandwiches and water there.вЂќД¬ardinal Krajewski said the Missionaries of Charity at the Gift of Mary House are handing out around 120 sack dinners every evening. вЂњOur volunteers keep the same schedules, we are still distributing food at RomeвЂ™s train stations, and the shower facilities under the Colonnade around St. The Papal Almoner said his office is continuing to offer the same services as before. With restaurants closed, a charitable person is unable to offer someone a croissant or a cappuccino so they need somewhere to find food. The same goes for food assistance, he said. вЂњSo we need to keep our shower facilities and restrooms open.вЂќ In more normal times, homeless people can use the restrooms of cafes and restaurants, but now most are closed. Critical moment of needД¬ardinal Krajewski said this is a critical moment to help the poor. вЂњThough we maintain a safe physical distance, put on gloves, and avoid assemblies, we can still help those who are right beside us,вЂќ he said. The Almoner of the Office of Papal Charities said the Vatican continues to heed the cry of the poor despite the coronavirus outbreak. вЂњDonвЂ™t ignore the poor Lazarus who knocks at your door.вЂќД¬ardinal Konrad Krajewski launched this appeal to those who encounter a homeless person.
