Structured church: caring for the oppressed and impoverished? Or only for the 'unsaved'?

In all the sermons I've ever listened to (at least 250) there were maybe 3 that were specifically about Christian action to fight injustice and/or poverty and to be good stewards of our financial resources in this way. That is my greatest passion (and one of Jesus' key passions) . Yet most of the churches I've been to do not seem to share my passion for the poor (how could they, when they really 'needed' a new church cafetaria, or the latest music equipment 'to make church relevant to the youth'?) To escape the uncomfortable paradox between church financial spending and Jesus' love for the oppressed and the poor - Churches/ministers focus on 'spiritual saving' (evangelism) and ignore or extremely downplay the importance of physical saving (give the poor guy a loaf of bread!). Ghandi said: “There are people in the world so hungry, that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.”
