orphans and homeless is not the church's duty... ITS EVERYONE'S DUTY. That is what the bible says even in the book of James 1

Its is everyone's responsibility NOT only the CHURCH.. pls get that now!!!!

VivaLaFrans:
If Tithe and offering are used to pay ministers and temple keepers, what about the orphans and homeless?
Tithe and offerings are used for general administration of the church that include taking care of orphans and homeless when the need arise. Every church have a way of administering the fund from tithes and offerings

But is it possible to bless the orphans and homeless with my tithe and ask them to pray for me?
No that's seed not tithe.

One shouldn't have to pay to be prayed for. You can give your tithe/alms ("something (such as money or food) given freely to relieve the poor distributing alms to the needy" ) ... to anyone in need, especially the poor, widows, and orphans. Your pastor and/or anyone who is godly and cares for your soul should pray for you for free!

“Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’ - Matthew 25:37-41

pls bless them with your tithe. Don't give it to these business centers called churches. They need that help the most.

The lord God will reward you.
