OCU cleric who moved to UOC-KP has his church taken away by Dumenko's order
Former cleric of the OCU Yaroslav Yasenets, who announced his transition to the UOC-KP, had the Theophany Chapel in Kyiv where he served as a rector taken away.
"To avoid bloodshed and a massacre among the Orthodox, I decided not to start a war. With the new OCU priest and his people, we managed to reach an agreement on favorable terms: I take all the church utensils gifted to me, and they, in turn, help find a place for services in a better location," wrote the former OCU cleric.
According to him, his community will continue services elsewhere.
"Epifaniy once again confirmed his reputation as a raider, who now not only 'fights with the Russian Church' but also seizes temples from another Ukrainian Church – the Kyiv Patriarchate," wrote Yasenets.
Earlier, the UOJ reported that, according to Yasenets, even those who do not know the Creed are ordained in the OCU.
