The Romanian Patriarchate condemns the terrorist attack on France’s National Day

The Romanian Orthodox Church rejects any form of violence and extremism that produces victims among the innocent population and contributes to establishing an unnatural climate of fear, mistrust and insecurity among people.

In these difficult moments, we pray for the rest of the souls of those killed, the quick recovery of the injured, and we express our compassion and solidarity with the French people, going again through many trials.

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.
