The Bible tells us that Christians should be no part of the world. So how can the Archbishop reconcile this with what he is now proposing?

If you look on the site, which I know you do and search for disaster / disaster relief you will find many accounts.
Here is just one - Hurricane g03 8/8 13-14.
Jesus did not seek glory when he was on earth, and neither do his followers. The scripture in Matt 6 v 3 – “But you, when making gifts of mercy, do not let your left hand know what your right is doing,” applies here.
I now close my case.

@ Goodlife - If you wish to "close your case", thats your perogative, but you have hardly made one yet..
Thanks for the additional detail regarding disaster relief. Very commendable, I am sure, and I am not knocking it at all; People need all the help they can get at times like that. As Vulcan says though- it would be nice to see a bit of independent corroboration. I will research further, when I have a moment...
You still failed to answer my other questions though- out of oversight, lack of time perhaps? Anyway, here they are again;
"So do JWs run or fund hospitals, or hospices, or orphanages, or food banks?How about womens refuges? What charitable giving do they fund? As an example, I know the CoE has The Childrens Society and the Church Urban Fund as vehicles for charitable works - what would be the JW analogue? How about organisations like The Red Cross?"
I wonder if you would care to confirm whether the JWs do any of the above, like most of the major religions do?

From Goodlife: …//if you bothered to do your research you will find that when there is a disaster, it is generally JWs who are there first//
That’s a little disingenuous. Yes, the JWs are there, but primarily to help other JWs.
