Your Holiness,

Dear Brother in Christ,

It grieved my heart to learn the sad news that the fire had broken out in Abu-Seifein Church in Cairo, killing dozens of parishioners and injuring many people.

May God the Lover of mankind show mercy to the souls of the victims and help all those affected by the calamity to endure this affliction with fortitude, patience, Christian hope and firmness of spirit.

With brotherly love in the Lord and sincere condolences,

+KIRILL
PATRIARCH OF MOSCOW AND ALL RUSSIA

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.
