"Why not on the front line?": UOC -MP priests have arranged a dispute with the military near Khmelnytsky

Representatives of the clergy offended the fighters, reproaching that they were not on the front. One of the representatives of "Safari", a deputy of the Polonsk City Council Vitaliy Golovnya informed about it in his telegram-channel. According to the author of the publication, the priests "threatened the military, offended and pulled their hands.

" It happened next to the Church of the UOC -MP during the meeting, initiated by the villagers to resolve the issue of the transition of the temple to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (PCU). "Do you know that we heard under the walls of the MP Church (Moscow Patriarchate)? The transition did not gain enough votes, "the publication reads. Chief explained that the military came to the village during the first vacation service.

In the video of the incident he published, the fighters stand between two crowds. On the one hand, opponents of the Church's transition to the PCU and clergy gathered, on the other - supporters of this initiative. One moment you can see how one of the representatives of the temple stretches his hands to opponents, however, judging by the personnel, there was no fight during the incident.

According to the abbot of the Holy Trinity Church of the Polonsky district of the PCU Andrei Moravsky, in the Great March the priest, who subordinates to the Moscow Patriarchate, did not allow to sing the 32-year-old Sergey Tsymbalyuk who died during the war under Kharkov. The man died on April 23, and the family could not bury him for 190 days - the body was taken away from the Kharkiv region only after the de -occupation of part of the region.

There is only one church in the village of Great Berezna, and it is subordinate to the MP, but the family refused to hide it with the participation of the priests of the Moscow Patriarchate and invited to the Church of the September of the PCU. However, the rector of the temple Igor Bondaruk did not immediately consent, despite the exhortation of local authorities and law enforcement. In the end, he agreed, but provided that the priest of the PCU would not go to the throne in the church.

Moravsky added that he could not start the rite, because the royal gate was closed in the temple, and the abbot of the church refused to open them, therefore the conflict began. The serviceman was buried, but after the incident, some of the village residents decided to initiate a meeting on the transition of the temple from the UOC -MP to the PCU.

We will remind, recently the Security Service of Ukraine opened criminal proceedings on the execution of a pro-Russian song in one of the temples of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra in the conditions of a full-scale war against the Russian Federation.
