The bill which is still under review was triggered after a high number of women got pregnant from being raped and died while attempting to terminate pregnancies through unsafe procedures.
In a statement released by the chairperson of the Malawi Council of Churches (MCC), Reverend Alex Benson Maulana he explained that the church will continue to preach against abortion but will appreciate the government to consider the circumstances of a rape victim who wishes not to keep the pregnancy.
‘We will continue to preach that abortion is a sin but we appreciate government efforts to address maternal mortality caused by unwanted pregnancy. Most women who are raped or impregnated will have a choice whether to keep the pregnancy or not'.
The MCC is an umbrella organization formed by 25 Christian churches.

Omg. Even churches now supports dat? Uwammebi

Which side of the bible do they read mbok
while rape n sexual abuse is highly disapproved of, the bible doesn't justify aborton except where the mother's life is at risk. They should work more on tackling the problem with the law and education rather than supporting abortion as the reaction
I can't deal biko. Linda take note!
I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is 'Abortion', because it is a war against the child... A direct killing of the innocent child, 'Murder' by the mother herself... And if we can accept that a mother can kill even her own child because she's been raped or poverty happened , how can we tell other people not to kill one another? How do we persuade a woman not to have an abortion? As always, we must persuade her with love... And we remind ourselves that love means to be willing to give until it hurts...
HMMM
Well, considering the circumstances they got pregnant, yes, The can abort, because they may Never show this child love if he's born
Your way of reasoning amazes me,i hope your dowry will be high o,you are too wise and intelligent jare.
As hard as it seems , I concur pls. I just won't be able to give birth to a child of my rapist!

How can churches in Malawi bow to satanic pressure and support evil.let me ask here;what are they really aborting? Pls Malawian govt.should do more to curb the rate of rapes in the country and more so Malawian church's should in a matter of urgency reverse the "wicked" support to abortion.
