Change language:
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán inaugurated a renewed complex of the bishop’s seat, and the Ráday seminary and student hostel of the Reformed Church in central Budapest on Saturday.
In his address, the prime minister said “we have to stand the trials and carry our homeland to the other side unharmed, clinging to each other, trusting God, with our eyes on the other side and not on the floods”.
Referring to the Reformed Church’s forefathers, Orbán said their instructions were “a commandment to keep not only the faith but our Hungarian identity, too”. He added it had been “no question” that his “national government” would stand by the Reformed Church and provide assistance in hard times, noting a devastating fire that had destroyed the seminary.
