 On 20 March 2013, Metropolitan Hilarion of Volokolamsk, DECR chairman, currently in Italy to attend the enthronement of Pope Francis of Rome with the blessing of His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia, met with His Holiness Patriarch Bartholomew of Constantinople at breakfast in the Vatican hotel “Domus Sanctae Marthae’ where the guests are staying.

They were joined in the talk by Bishop Sergiy of Solnechnogorsk, head of the Moscow Patriarchate’s Administrative Secretariat, and by hieromonk Antoniy (Sevryuk), secretary of the administration of the Moscow Patriarchate’s parishes in Italy. Discussed were issues pertaining to inter-Orthodox cooperation and interaction of the Local Orthodox Churches in the inter-Christian dialogue.

Since you are here…

…we do have a small request. More and more people visit Orthodoxy and the World website. However, resources for editorial are scarce. In comparison to some mass media, we do not make paid subscription. It is our deepest belief that preaching Christ for money is wrong.

Having said that, Pravmir provides daily articles from an autonomous news service, weekly wall newspaper for churches, lectorium, photos, videos, hosting and servers. Editors and translators work together towards one goal: to make our four websites possible - Pravmir.ru, Neinvalid.ru, Matrony.ru and Pravmir.com. Therefore our request for help is understandable.

For example, 5 euros a month is it a lot or little? A cup of coffee? It is not that much for a family budget, but it is a significant amount for Pravmir.

If everyone reading Pravmir could donate 5 euros a month, they would contribute greatly to our ability to spread the word of Christ, Orthodoxy, life's purpose, family and society.
