On June 30, 2026, the Shepetivka Eparchy delivered about three tons of humanitarian aid to the Sviatohirsk Lavra for the brethren and refugees. This was reported by the Lavra press service.
The shipment included food and personal hygiene products. The aid was collected among the clergy and faithful of all deaneries of the eparchy with the blessing of Metropolitan Eusebiy of Shepetivka and Slavuta. The eparchial youth department also took part in the charitable initiative.
Clerics of the Church of the Holy Martyrs Faith, Hope, Love, and their Mother Sophia, led by Archpriest Fedir Veresiuk, undertook the delivery of the shipment to the frontline zone. The priests traveled about 1,000 kilometers.
One of the visiting priests noted that after prayer before the Sviatohirsk Icon of the Mother of God, a son was born in his family, and that he had come to the Holy Mountains in gratitude to the Theotokos.
As the UOJ reported, UOC eparchies delivered aid to a rehabilitation center in Khmelnytskyi.
