The Family Commission of Kerala Catholic Bishops Council (KCBC) will create a matrimonial website, with a separate option for the widows to register.
“We want to bring in a change in the overall outlook to widows in our community. Even today society prescribes dress code for them and forces them to behave in a certain manner in social gatherings. They are humans and in no way they should be discriminated in society,” explained Father Paul Madassery, KCBC Family Commission Secretary.
The Church official pointed out that the remarriage of widows, even very young one, has become a rarity. He claimed the new website would give Christian widows hope for a new life, especially those under 40 years.
