🇺🇦ГОНИМА ПАРАФІЯ УПЦ ЗУСТРІЧАЄ ПАСХУ НА БУКОВИНІ

“Holy days are no time for mockery,” Metropolitan Luke emphasizes.
Metropolitan Luke of Zaporizhzhia and Melitopol has called on religious leaders to speak out against the LGBT film festival scheduled to take place in Kyiv. “Why is there no united voice from the Orthodox, Catholics, Greek Catholics, Jews, Muslims, and Protestants – the voice of reason, faith, and conscience? Why is faith silent when unbelief screams?” the metropolitan wrote on his Telegram channel.
The UOC hierarch pointed out that during a period of intense spiritual significance – Holy Week and Bright Easter – an LGBT film festival will be held in Kyiv, promoting a lifestyle contrary to Christian teaching.
“Good Friday is the day when the entire Christian world remembers Christ’s Sacrificial Death on the Cross for the salvation of humanity from sin. Easter is the celebration of victory over death, a feast of light, purity, and life. To use these days to advance an ideology that contradicts Christian morality is deeply disrespectful not only to believers but to the very spiritual essence of the human person,” he stressed.
According to the bishop, the festival is a blatant affront to followers of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, as April is a sacred month for all three faiths – with Easter for Christians, Passover for Jews, and Ramadan for Muslims. Holding a provocative event during such days is an insult to all three religious communities at once.
“When a festival that openly undermines moral foundations takes place in the very heart of the capital during days sacred to millions of believers – Christians, Jews, Muslims – it raises a disturbing and legitimate question: where is the voice of ‘the greatest spiritual leaders of Ukraine from various denominations and religious organizations’? Where are the statements, pastoral appeals, and calls for respect toward the sacred?” the hierarch asks.
Metropolitan Luke also notes that many religious leaders today are “busy supporting legislative initiatives aimed at the legal ‘killing’ of my Mother Church – the Ukrainian Orthodox Church – with their silent consent to the forceful and unlawful seizures of its churches, the beating of faithful parishioners defending these churches, and the triumphant labeling of persecution against the UOC as ‘unprecedented religious freedom.’”
“Why is there no united voice from the Orthodox, Catholics, Greek Catholics, Jews, Muslims, and Protestants – the voice of reason, faith, and conscience? Why is faith silent when unbelief screams? The world will not become better if we remain silent. It will become better when people of light begin to speak – clearly, courageously, lovingly, but without fear,” Metropolitan Luke adds.
Stressing that his appeal is not a call to hatred or violence, he asks for respect toward millions of believers.
“Do not turn holy days into a battlefield of cultural and spiritual conflict. There are many other dates and venues. But Easter, Passover, and Ramadan are not the time for such events,” the metropolitan concludes.

Metropolitan Onuphry urged the faithful to partake of the Holy Mysteries with reverence and repentance to receive blessings for both earthly and eternal life.
In his sermon on Maundy Thursday, during the service at the St. Agapit Church of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry spoke about the profound significance of the Sacrament of Eucharist, the press service of the UOC reports.
His Beatitude noted that the Eucharist is not only a remembrance of the Last Supper but also the main testimony of Divine love. He reminded of the Savior's words: “Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you.”
These words, said His Beatitude, remind us that through Holy Communion we receive the “pledge of eternal life and deification”.
“The Lord gave us His Divine Body in the form of bread, and His Blood in the form of wine, to make us partakers of the Divine nature,” said His Beatitude. He explained that by receiving the Body and Blood of the Lord, we unite with Him, become part of His Church, and gain strength for spiritual growth.
Metropolitan Onuphry urged the faithful to approach the Sacrament of Eucharist with reverence and repentance, to feel the depth of Divine love and receive blessings for earthly and eternal life.

Police announced a UOC priest about the application of 24-hour house arrest for him, reported a lawyer Archpriest Mykyta Chekman.

The most interesting thing is that the arrest was ordered at the address where Father Theognost does not actually live. Yes, you guessed it right - it is very far from his temple, which the OCU has set its sights on and which the SBU accused the archimandrite of embezzling.

And this despite the fact that the police and the SBU investigator promised not to initiate the arrest BEFORE Easter Day, so as not to interfere with the priestly service. But, as we see, they decided otherwise, disregarding the rights of the clergyman and the believers, who are actually deprived of their abbot. The investigators' goal is obvious - to prevent the Easter services of Archimandrite Theognost.

In a similar way, the abbot Metropolitan Pavlo was removed from the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, placing him under arrest for registration. The same thing was done against Metropolitan Theodosius of Cherkasy. What persecution?

The defender asks to pray for Father Theognost🙏

◾️A group of raiders from the OCU village of Vilne in the Dnipropetrovsk region continues its efforts to take away the UOC St. Panteleimon Church from Orthodox Christians.

According to our sources, the illegal re-registration, which the thieves have been pursuing for more than a year, has taken place.

Attempts to take away the House of God from the faithful of the UOC started in 2023. Raiders from the OCU then organized a meeting of the territorial community, at which they decided to "transfer" the church.

The real parish of the church held a meeting of the religious community, at which Christians unanimously confirmed that they were remaining in the UOC.

Despite this, the shrine was re-registered. And the activists of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, according to our information, plan to go further. For now, they are gathering in the premises of the cultural center.

The parish of the church is afraid of provocations.

The SBU is demonstrating some particularly cynical Bolshevik shame.

On their official resources, the security forces reported they had “exposed” the rector of a UOC temple in the Kyiv region, who had “privatized the church.”

“This concerns a temple building and its outbuildings with an area of almost 500 m² in one of the villages of the Boryspil district. The total value of the property is over 7 million UAH. All this real estate belongs to the local community.”

According to materials of the SBU, the priest “initially “donated” the church buildings to his sister. After acquiring the rights to this property, the cleric's relative transferred it to a charitable fund controlled by the rector of the church."

This epic of the security forces ends with the fact that 2 criminal cases were opened against the priest:
🚫Part 5 of Article 191 (embezzlement, embezzlement of property or taking possession of it by abuse of official position, committed on an especially large scale);
🚫Part 1 of Article 366 (official forgery).

The clergyman is threatened with 12 years in prison.

❗️And now about the inside of this farce.
We will tell you about the facts in this story, indicating that the SBU is just trying to help the OCU raiders in taking the church away from Christians.

According to our information, a case was opened against the rector of the UOC St. Archangel Michael Church in the village of Protsiv, Kyiv region, Father Theognost.

Back in 2023, local activists of the OCU decided to take the shrine away from Orthodox Christians.

On June 3, 2023, a group of raiders gathered at a meeting of the territorial community, at which they decided to “transfer” the shrine to the OCU.
On the same day, the real parish of the temple held a meeting of the religious community, at which it unanimously confirmed that it would remain in the UOC.

Despite the will of the parishioners, the religious community was illegally re-registered with the OCU.
And at this stage, Epiphany's raiders learned that they still could not take the temple away. After all, the shrine has long been owned by the foundation.
Thanks to this, Orthodox Christians were able to continue to pray peacefully.

But, as we see, after 2 years, the SBU decided to “help” the raiders and thieves. They claim that the temple belongs to some abstract “community.” What is not Bolshevik “property of the working people” to you?

Now they are trying to create a case against the priest who completely legally transferred the shrine to the property of the Orthodox foundation. And protected the church from the raider seizure by OCU activists.

SBU officers seized three computers.
On April 15, 2025, following searches conducted by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) in the reception office of the Chancellor of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, Metropolitan Anthony of Boryspil and Brovary, and in the chancery of the Kyiv Metropolia, the hierarch recorded a video comment addressing the events.
Metropolitan Anthony confirmed UOJ’s earlier report that SBU officers behaved respectfully during the search.
“The search was conducted in my office as Chancellor of the UOC, in the reception area, and in the chancery of the Kyiv Metropolia. As a result, three computers were seized,” the metropolitan stated.
He thanked all the faithful for their prayers and reminded them that the Church is currently living through Holy Week.
“We are the Church of Christ, and that means we must walk the path of Christ. The path to the Resurrection leads through Golgotha. Therefore, dear brothers and sisters, I am most grateful for your prayers and wish all of us to pass through this period of Holy Week with spiritual benefit, so that we may joyfully greet the Bright Resurrection of Christ. May the Lord protect you all!” he said.

The City Council Secretary claimed that the UOC represents “forces supporting aggression against Ukraine”.
On 9 April 2025, during an extraordinary 77th session of the Cherkasy City Council, deputies voted to confiscate land from the UOC under three church buildings, reports Council Secretary Yurii Trenkin.
Trenkin did not name the churches but listed their addresses: 30 Heroiv Dnipra Street, 39/1 Sumhaitska Street, and 18 Vikentii Khvoika Street.
According to Trenkin, “this decision is one of the key steps towards strengthening our spiritual independence and restoring justice”.
“We will no longer allow forces that support aggression against our country to operate under the guise of faith. Every inch of Ukrainian land must serve the interests of our people and not be used as a tool of influence by foreign states,” the Council Secretary declared, thanking all those who supported the decision.
“Glory to the Ukrainian Church!” Trenkin concluded, without clarifying which denomination he meant.

The Social Department of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church continues a series of reports on the temples social activities.

✍️"Thanks to our community and to Saint Spyridon, we feed people. The dinners may not be so big, but they are always fresh, homemade food. Soup, porridge, gravy, tea.
And some goodies: cookies, candies if possible”

❗️The religious community of the parish in honor of St. Spyridon Trimyphuntsky in the Svyatoshynskyi district of the capital (Lesya Kurbasa Avenue, 7d) began holding charity dinners every Sunday since 2012.

“At first, we started distributing dinners near the church, after a while we moved further, near the cinema, and for about a year and a half we fed there. Then the war began and the administration allowed us to feed at the crossing. Moreover, it was the initiative of the parishioners themselves: they suggested it, organized it.

Previously, it was mostly homeless people, displaced persons, and now - pensioners. We feed every Sunday,” said Archpriest Dimitriy Badiuk.

The Kyiv Theological Academy expressed condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims.
Following the Divine Liturgy on April 5, 2025, the faculty and students of the Kyiv Theological Academy and Seminary offered prayers for all those who died as a result of Russian missile strikes on Kryvyi Rih on April 4, according to the Academy’s press service.
A memorial litia was served in the academic church dedicated to St. John of Damascus at the Intercession Monastery in Holosiiv, led by Archimandrite Markel (Pauk), a lecturer, together with the academy’s clergy and seminarians in holy orders.
“The Kyiv theological schools express their condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims. May the All-Merciful Lord grant rest to the souls of the innocently slain in the dwellings of the righteous,” the statement reads.
The service was conducted with the blessing of Archbishop Sylvester of Bilohorodka, rector of the Kyiv Theological Academy and Seminary.

Nineteen people were killed, including nine children, and sixty-one were injured, among them twelve children, as a result of the Russian missile attack on Kryvyi Rih. The city has declared days of mourning on April 7, 8, and 9 for those who perished in the recent strikes.

According to the UOC's Primate, the saints pray for everyone without exception, making no distinctions between people. It is sin that divides people, while God unites all.
On the Fifth Sunday of Great Lent, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry of Kyiv and All Ukraine explained in his sermon why the Church commemorates the act of repentance of St. Mary of Egypt on this particular day. The address was reported by the UOC’s Information and Education Department.
According to the Metropolitan, every person living on earth sins – and in doing so "feeds" sinful thoughts, inclinations, and passions, which become inner "beasts." When someone chooses to repent and cease sinning, these passions rise up against them.
“The passions begin to torment a person who wants to be rid of them. They also harm those living alongside such a person. So that we don’t fall into despair, the Church offers us the example of the repentance of St. Mary of Egypt, who endured all of this,” said the Primate.
His Beatitude emphasized that St. Mary endured many years of suffering caused by sinful desires, enduring both cold and heat, but with God’s help, she overcame her passions and attained grace.
“May the Lord, through the prayers of St. Mary of Egypt, help us to spend the days of Lent in self-restraint and inner struggle – cutting off sinful desires, emotions, and thoughts,” the Metropolitan said.
In his sermon, His Beatitude also reminded the faithful that on this day the Holy Church commemorates the Venerable Fathers of the Zverynets Monastery. He shared the story of the life and struggles of the confessor and saint, Venerable Philaret (Kochubei), former abbot of the Zverynets Monastery, who is now glorified among the saints.
“Venerable Philaret is an intercessor for this holy place. He prays for those who come here to pray, to grow spiritually, for our city, our region, and all people,” said the Metropolitan.
According to His Beatitude, the saints pray for everyone without exception, not dividing people into categories. It is sin that divides people, but God unites all. And the saints, by imitating Him in mercy and love, also pray for everyone.
“They pray that the sinner may become righteous, and that the righteous may be sanctified even further. Such is the prayer of the saints,” added Metropolitan Onuphry.
At the conclusion of his sermon, the Archpastor called everyone to spiritual struggle, which is necessary for restoring within ourselves the image of God, which has been damaged by sin.
“May the Lord help us to walk the path of repentance with patience, never straying from it, and to continue along the way of spiritual life,” said His Beatitude.

At the same time, the activists of the Orthodox Church of Ukraine were unable to gather 50 people for their vote on the "transfer" of the Orthodox community.
On February 28, 2025, the religious community in honor of the Transfiguration of the Lord in the Bukovynian village of Kerstentsi, part of the Khotyn district of the UOC, with the rector, archpriest Volodymyr Tymofeiev, testified its loyalty to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church led by His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry. This was reported on the page "Faithful of the Chernivtsi-Bukovynian Eparchy".
All 250 parishioners present voted in favor.
At the same time, the meeting of supporters of the OCU was postponed several times. Initially, it was planned for February 28, but only about 30 people showed up. The infamous chaplain present at the event stated that this was insufficient, so the meeting was postponed. However, even fewer people came then – about 25 – so the meeting was postponed again, this time to Sunday, March 23.
According to local residents, this time various methods of "delaying the meeting" were employed, including blackmail, threats of mobilization through the TRC, bribery, and other means. However, even such methods did not yield the expected results – about 40 people attended.
"The organizers claimed that many people were also in the corridor, but according to our information, it was the police. Of course, law enforcement officers are also citizens, but they are not members of the religious community of the UOC in the village of Kerstentsi. For the organizers, this apparently did not matter," the Chernivtsi Eparchy added.

The press service of the OCU stated that allegedly at the general parish meeting, 181 "registered members of the community unanimously made the decision" to join their structure. According to them, "the process took place in accordance with canonical and legal norms, reflecting the will of the community." The photo clearly shows that several dozen people gathered in the hall.

According to political analyst Kostiantyn Bondarenko, the Ministry of Culture’s “work” with the relics of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra is an act of cynicism.
In an interview with blogger Oleksandr Shelest, political expert Kostiantyn Bondarenko commented on the Ministry of Culture’s commission tasked with “studying the scientific and cultural value of the remains of saints” in the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra.
In his view, these actions further highlight the government’s hostility toward the Church.
“The very inspection of the Near and Far Caves, initiated by the Minister of Culture, is cynical by nature – not only are they attempting to inventory the relics, but also to assess their scientific and historical value,” said Bondarenko.
He suggested that the inclusion of biologists and even veterinarians on the commission implies a scientific, possibly even genetic investigation.

“What exactly are they going to study? Are they trying to determine whether these relics belong to Ukrainians or not? How can one even identify historical and cultural value this way? I don’t understand it,” Bondarenko remarked.

The anti-church publication that sympathizes with the OCU, "Ukraine Orthodox", publishes an interview with one of the commissioners in the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra.

This commissioner wanted to remain anonymous. Which already says a lot about the understanding that the Ministry of Culture is committing a crime and desecrating a holy place.

The blasphemer stated that any comparisons of their commission with the Bolsheviks are "propaganda" and "ignorance of believers".
That is, he considers Ukrainian Christians to be fools who find it difficult to compare the events of today and a century ago.

“Everyone is well aware that relics are a unique national spiritual and historical heritage and a shrine for millions of believers. Therefore, the state must examine and understand for itself which of these relics was transferred for veneration by the Church in the 80s, which is now and in what condition. The members of the commission take descriptions of what the relics looked like in 1926, then compare them with the last inventory in the eighties.”

I wonder who made those “descriptions” in 1926? Were they not Bolsheviks?
Pay attention to the perception of the relics of the saints by this commissioner. For him, the Monks of Pechersk are a “national heritage” that was “transferred for veneration” to the Church.

The official literally confirms that he continues the Bolsheviks' work. The basis of the communists’ campaign to “research relics” was nationalization. They took the saints from the Church and made them their “property.” And then “researched” until the time when the relics were returned to the Church.
Now they have taken the relics again and are continuing the “research.”

The commissioner admitted that a representative of the OCU travels together with the officials, who provides “spiritual cover” for their blasphemy.

“Among the commission members themselves are serious scientists. For example, the scientist whom some call a “veterinarian” is actually a professor who participated in the re-embalming of Pirogov’s body. Therefore, he knows very well how to approach such preserved incorruptible remains as relics.”

How do you like that? He is not only a veterinarian, but also an embalming specialist. This wilderness is published by OCU lobbyists to justify blasphemy.

As a result, we have clerics of the OCU who, together with veterinarians and other commissioners, “establish the scientific value” of the Orthodox Church saints.
