Russian Orthodox Church to Pray for Lower Interest Rates and Affordable Mortgages
The Russian Orthodox Church has announced that they will hold prayer services to request a reduction in the key interest rate and affordable mortgages. Metropolitan Yevgeny of Yekaterinburg and Verkhoturye believes that the relics of St. Spiridon, currently in Russia, may help improve the economic situation. The Church will pray on the day of the Central Bank's meeting, with Metropolitan Yevgeny comparing the key rate to 'daily bread' for people.5 sourcesSee all sources
