PRO VITA ASSOCIATION
  MOTTO:

" Therefore take no thought, saying what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? Or wherewithall shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek for your heavenly Father knouted that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you "

(Matthew 6, 31-34)
