An event to promote family values will be held in Orsha

The district campaign to promote family values "Together for Life" will be held today in Orsha, a correspondent was informed by the district executive committee BELTA.

Thematic events will be held in the district center throughout the day. Thus, a family planning office will be solemnly opened at the city maternity hospital, and newborns will be registered. A briefing club meeting with the district's student youth will be held at the Ice Palace. And on the site near the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a thematic flash mob will take place, followed by a solemn prayer service for the protection of life within the walls of the church. The photo exhibition of works by Irina Shidlovskaya, displayed at the Korotkevich Museum, and the solemn evening "Together for Life" at the Railway Workers' House of Culture will add positivity and bright colors to the campaign.

In general, the propaganda campaign to protect the lives of unborn children, aimed at attracting wide public attention to family issues, has been carried out in the district from December 1 to 31. "This is the second such campaign, the first was held in the spring and yielded positive results - 90 women changed their initial decisions and refused abortions. The result is significant, and therefore we plan to hold such campaigns quarterly in the future," the district executive committee said.

"Together for Life" campaign is being held within the framework of the National Program for Demographic Security, adopted for 2011-2015, as well as the Republican Spiritual and Educational Church-State Program "Family - Unity - Fatherland."

The aim of the campaign is to increase the birth rate, reduce the number of artificial abortions, and form a positive attitude towards family values among young people.
