In the Rivne region of Ukraine, the canonical UOC was deprived of all city facilities and religious activities were banned. Archbishop Pimen commented on what was happening, announced the destruction of Ukraine as a legal state.
The Ukrainian cleric noted that nothing has changed in the ordinary life of believers. For Orthodox Christians in Ukraine, the last week of Lent has begun and they plan to continue praying.
According to the Archbishop, adherents of the canonical UOC will pray for all those who “spit in the faces of mothers” and have rejected the original faith. The Kiev regime considers apostates those who, according to tradition, buried people who died in the conflict because of their membership in the Moscow Patriarchate.
“We will pray for them, because Christ taught us to pray. He said what’s the point if you love someone who loves you, you love someone who doesn’t love you,” Pimen said.
The UOC cleric pointed out that after the persecution of believers, Ukraine showed that it was completely destroyed as a legal state. To become a country that wants to join the European Union again, it is necessary to build a new state from scratch.
Previously, the “regional leader” had reported that Bandera had attacked the temples of the canonical church. The actions of Ukrainian nationalists in Orthodox churches ended in tragedy on Palm Sunday. The ministers of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church continue to resist the attacks of the persecutors.
