South Korea to Lift Decades-Long Ban on Abortion

June 5, 2013

The Assembly of Bishops of the Serbian Orthodox Church (SPC) released a statement saying it supports the initiative from a group of Orthodox doctors calling for a state ban on abortion, except when done for medical reasons.

In the statement released on Tuesday, the SPC notes that abortion is responsible for the population of Serbia dropping by a medium-sized town every year, which testifies about the deep moral decline, crisis of the family and lack of true faith.

The Assembly, which finished its regular session on June 3, recommended to all SCP dioceses to set up funds for assistance to families with more children.

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.
