The Christian Church provided aid to many European communities through the works of priests, monks, and nuns in terms of education and medicine, as well as to give many Christians a sense of security through religious rites meant to guarantee a good afterlife. By providing these benefits to people of all social classes, the Church was able to influence most of the rulers and nobles that held political power in Europe, and by extension attain secular power itself.
