and elevation they longed for and expected, and it came true. and many did not even believe that this was actually the case on social networks. they expressed their delight at your outfit, so stylized as a vyshyvanka . the fact that this is what the new ukrainian church looks like, i also did not expect that everyone would turn their attention to my vestments, which really, uh, have such notes, patriotic notes , although it was made even before the full -scale invasion. patriotic and so on just for some special event just for some special event maybe even we didn't understand what we were preparing for and now we paid attention and it's

nice that we really are the church of the ukrainian people and the people see that the orthodox church of ukraine really cheers for the future fate of our ukrainian state, and this is reflected in such external symbols, everyone wants to see that the ukrainian orthodox church is a real church of the ukrainian people, not only by name, by name, as we see that some hide and, unfortunately, work for the occupier and the aggressor. and we are truly both outside and inside the ukrainian church, which does everything to preserve unity, to preserve statehood, to preserve freedom and independence. what is this first service in kiev-pechers? it

took place as peacefully as possible, without provocations . in the meantime, the news spread that on this day, when the service in the cathedral of the kiev-pechersk lavra was fixed, someone burned the balls on the grave of metropolitan volodymyr. let's explain. to our viewers, this is the headdress of orthodox priests, there have already been speculations that it is some kind of localism, shamanism. how did you feel about this and do you understand who is behind it ? incomprehensible provocation, as we can see, there are a lot of comments on this topic and guesses as to what it meant and so on, but it does not matter at all, we see that the enemy is trying to restrain the processes that are currently taking place in ukrainian society different things are supposed to frighten the faithful by pointing out that something is happening there that

contradicts the orthodox practice and so on , in fact there is no such thing, and it was strange for me to even hear and see that some such incomprehensible things are happening in orthodox shrines, it is more like some kind of shamanism and not the orthodox tradition but one should expect such certain provocations from those who want to maintain and preserve the situation that existed until february 24 before the full-scale invasion, but these processes cannot be stopped by the ukrainian the people understand well, now we still need to unite unite around the recognized single local ukrainian orthodox church around our kyiv throne so it happened that you and i are talking between the first service of the orthodox church of ukraine held already in the lavra and the orthodox church of ukraine

announced that on january 19 it will be held second service in the assumption cathedral of the kyiv-pechersk lavra how often do you plan to return there how do you see the future of the kyiv-pechersk lavra the future of the kyiv-pechersk lavra is to be completely in to the ukrainian orthodox church, to the orthodox church of ukraine, and when we received the first permit, a one-time permit, everyone said it was only a one-time thing, there will be no continuation , but we see that there will be a continuation, we will do it gradually. at first, we serve only on major holidays. and when the kyiv-pechersk clergy will be formed lavras, when a part of the monks from the lower lavra will join us, then we will arrange that divine services will be held every day, and already in the cathedrals, in the central assumption cathedral, the services will be completed every sunday

that is, it is only a matter of time, er, in order to organize everything and do it right, and it will happen. well, i want to explain to our viewers that in practice now, for you, this situation looks in such a way that you will receive permission to hold a service, for example, in the dormition cathedral of kyiv-pechersk lavras, but what is called the lower lavra, it is currently still under the control of the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate , you have no fear that since all this is happening in the same territory, there may be some difficulties, conflicts or again, the same provocations, the upper lavra is located in the dedicated national museum of the kiev-pechersk lavra, these premises that we used, the moscow patriarchate, i.e., the two churches of the upper lavra , the assumption church and the refectory church they returned although they were loyal to the state

but their contract ended leases and therefore they lost the opportunity to perform divine services in the upper lavra. and now we are gradually receiving one-time permits for the completion of divine services, but over time i am convinced that the main one will be signed as well contract for the use of these temples in the future. of course, we will co-exist . part of the lower lavra is currently in the hands of the moscow patriarchate, the upper lavra is in the hands of the national reserve, where we will worship at first by receiving such one-time permits. and then a corresponding long-term agreement will be signed and i am convinced that over time, we will unite everything , that is, the entire lavra will be ukrainian, will belong to the orthodox church of ukraine, and it will all happen peacefully and calmly, just like on the seventh number because some and 7 of which there will still be certain

provocations, but we pray, the lord is merciful , and i think that everything will happen as it should , i have already seen a statement from the ternopil regional council that they plan to invite you to hold a service in the pochaiv lavra and, in principle, initiate such an appeal to the relevant state bodies so that the objects and the pochaiv lavra in particular are handed over to the management of the orthodox church of ukraine. do you consider for yourself the possibility, firstly, to hold a service there, and secondly, in general, would you like this object to be under control as well ? of the orthodox church of ukraine, we have been talking about two national holidays for several years in the last four years, especially in the past four years, we have repeatedly appealed and appealed in the month of may, before holding their meeting in theophany, we called to start dia, but to start it without

any preconditions, because if we set preconditions , then we will never start this dialogue but from their side we received an answer of only ultimatums, that is, that they do not recognize us as a priesthood, we are the autocephalous church, and so on, it is similar to what putin demands from ukraine a complete capitulation, but this will never happen, they must understand and realize that it is not the right time to issue these ultimatums. we are open, we are truly ready with love for the unification of all orthodox ukrainians, the unified recognition of the autokefans to the orthodox church, but they are not ready for this like we are we see that they are not even ready to punish those who are clear collaborators and work openly for the aggressor country. now we see that the case is doing a

lot in this direction because it is a matter of national security of the ukrainian state. we are open, we are ready, but unite with those who consider themselves ukrainian, who identify themselves as ukrainians, we see that there are a lot of those who until now work openly for the occupier, especially this applies to the occupied territories, we see that in the occupied territories almost 100%. the only thing that remains is that there are no ministers who do not support the occupation authorities, they pray together with them, bless them, meet with the kravai and so on, this is also in the dry mass information, because there are examples from the priests who were there from the first days of a full-scale invasion, and the fire adjusters helped and contributed to that, and now the state, as we can see, has taken up the issue because it concerns our future

if we do not cut off the collaborators inside the country who cover themselves only with the church and cover themselves with a robe, they talk about certain persecutions, but there is no such thing, because this does not concern faith or freedom of religion, it concerns the national security of the ukrainian state, and therefore the state cares about its security well, i really want to hope that these actions of the state, they still had some logical conclusion so that there were decisions of the courts regarding those people who were caught by the mass media against the background of the searches, but still we want some decisions of the judges. i would like to ask you about these actions of the state that we have observed in several months of searches at the facilities of the uoc mp we have seen sanctions introduced against some representatives of the clergy, do you think this can contribute to the unification of churches in general or does it, on the contrary , distance the uoc mp and some of its representatives from

uniting with the orthodox church of ukraine, about that part of the moscow patriarchate in ukraine which is patriotic, that is, they are waiting for the time when we will unite with them, but there is a part that will never join, that is, they are from the russian church at heart and are so internally related to it that none there is pressure from society, because now there is, as we can see, the frantic demand of ukrainian society, and that is why the state began to respond to the demand of ukrainian society, because society demands the truth, why do we see collaborators and their no one is punishing, why is it not open? although now there are already many open criminal proceedings and so on, but a few months

ago this was not the case. interfere in these processes for the sake of national security, because we can have victories at the front, but inside, too, the internal spiritual front is very important and therefore it is necessary to do everything in the complex and what is happening it should show the representatives of the moscow patriarchate that they must change if they want to serve and work in ukraine in the future they must change they must in fact to break the connection that they have with the russian orthodox church and will in fact, here i will simply remind our viewers that there was a synod of the ukrainian orthodox church of the moscow patriarchate in may 2022, after which they very loudly announced that they had come out against the patriarch of the russian orthodox church kirill and took

course for independence, this does not correspond to the reality outside the borders, it was to some extent a disguise, that is, they purged from their charter, as it were, all references to the russian orthodox church, but still left a fundamental reference to the patriarch's letter alexia, and according to this document, they will continue to be an integral part of the russian orthodox church, that is, they had a desire to show to society that they broke off relations, but in reality, the relations were as they were, that is, even until now, the statute has not been published, if the desire was actually to break off these relations so why hide the charter documents for more than six months? that is, you officially accepted, but according to which charter you live, it is not known. it is not clear. that is why it

was a certain game. about such a phenomenon as church diplomacy. i am sure that it is present in such a time of crisis for ukraine. what are the opportunities of the church in the conditions of war to influence the solution of certain humanitarian challenges and maybe even political ones ? the ukrainian state as the head of the e-e last year i had many trips abroad, met with religious leaders, i took part in an international conference in london and met with the spiritual head of the anglican church archbishops of triderri who recently also came to kyiv at my invitation , that is, i took part in various events in berlin, brussels, and in poland, that is, we are working

at full capacity, we use church diplomacy to testify or abroad is great in this need for example, when i was in london, some lords who are responsible for the press asked me what we should do next, because we see that even in england, which is our greatest friend , nevertheless, in the information space, such a place decline regarding the issue of the war in ukraine, because society, as we know, has a tendency to get tired. and we must constantly remind and testify that we need support. we need help in order to defeat the aggressor. how has the question of people changed in general after february 24, what do they come to church with priests with? of the orthodox church of ukraine, because we are all people, we are all going through

these terrible events, and it seems to me that the church can become some kind of place where a person can find peace, and maybe in some cases a person can even really lose faith in god after a full-scale invasion, and people flock to the church in order to receive the first spiritual and moral support, because now it is difficult for everyone and every clergyman is a certain psychologist, that is, he provides such support , we especially feel this among our soldiers , because we have an institute palanstva, which is also called to take care of our newest heroes, uh, because it is difficult for them too, and i feel especially from our ukrainian soldiers thanks

and a request that there should be a priest in every unit, and practically we have now there are already many priests in positions in the ukrainian army and also volunteers, hundreds of volunteer priests who travel and help our ukrainian soldiers, we conduct such psychological trainings, and i was pleased that one of the priests went and said, you know, thanks to such a training , i received a modern knowledge and prevention of 10 suicides, it is clear that it is difficult there, some family problems and so on, and the military needs such help but not only for the military, but also for our e-e ukrainians , especially the displaced people who sometimes lost everything they may despair, but then they still

return to faith when they receive this support from the church, not only psychological, spiritual, but also material . a large humanitarian house in dnipro, thanks to which every day several thousand people there, 34 thousand people receive material aid, food, various things are necessary, that is, everything here is closely interconnected, but people come, we see that after the pandemic, because in during the pandemic, there were practically fewer people in the temples for two years, because we called, for the sake of preserving life and health, not to congregate

, that is, not to visit, to participate in online broadcasts, and now we see that recently after the full-scale invasion, people are coming to the temple they need this, because prayer has a great effective power, if we continue to ask god for help together, then the lord will certainly help us and help us to finally achieve our joint victory after which in ukraine a just peace will prevail, you and i are recording this conversation, this is what happened against the background of this terrible tragedy in the dnipro, where more than 30 people have already died as a result of a russian missile hitting a residential building, in principle, there was an awful lot of shelling in ukraine that day, again what do you say to people which perhaps against the background of such terrible tragedies, uh, in general, people despair, they ask how god can

allow such a thing, it is not god who allows it, every person has freedom and has the right to choose, god did not create evil, evil only parasitizes good, and that is why what we see is happening by the hands of people, people who misuse this freedom. they choose not good, but evil, although they call themselves christians. they are faithful to the russian orthodox church, and their leader kyrylo gundyaev openly blesses and supports the russian invaders so that they kill ukrainians. although he says that there is no ukraine, but there is a single nation, but the last time we heard his statement was that he says that

now the divisions have been introduced, but we remain a single people and a single church , that is, he considers that ukraine is his flocks if uh, that's all the russian orthodox church, but at the same time, it's a blessing that we see now uh, in the dnipro, that is, those who call themselves christians, orthodox christians, as we see committing such atrocities, the question arises of what military expediency it is to shoot at civilians if you want to fight, there are certain rules , military rules, you can't destroy civilians, critical infrastructure, you can't kill civilians, innocent people and children, but we see these manifestations on the part of the aggressor that

testify that the devil works there there is no god because where god is there is love and where there is love there is always mutual understanding there is respect there is peace and therefore we need to cut off this evil once and for all so that it does not spread further and we as a church and religious organizations when we visit international institutions when we were in berlin and in brussels, everyone was surprised that all ukrainian churches and religious organizations were also about providing weapons for ukraine, why in order to protect good? because if evil continues to advance, then we will see that there will be more victims, but we are called to cut off this evil so that it does not spread further throughout europe, so we should not

blame god. we should understand that this is a criminal, a person, and god wants people to live in peace and harmony, but the way we see such things happens because of the fact that a person has freedom and has the right to choose and very often chooses not good, but unfortunately chooses evil, which brings mountains to all of us now, your grace, i sincerely thank you for this conversation and i really hope and am sure that all our viewers hope for the fact that good will defeat evil, victory will definitely be on our side on our side the truth is we must believe have a firm and unshakable faith in the fact that the truth always wins we can see in history that sometimes evil has a certain short-lived success but in the end the truth always wins and good, and that is why we are on the side of

truth and good, we will defeat the enemy and a just peace reigns in ukraine, for which we all yearn so much, we hope for it thank you thank you thank you your future is in your hands protect your donetsk city of my first sports victory under the flag of ukraine, we are our native ukraine, which today is attacked by russia every day due to rocket attacks, ukrainian sports halls are abandoned or bombed out, the stands are silent , but the athletes of the whole world are not silent thanks to their struggle in russia, and belarus is no longer allowed to participate in international competitions, the european gymnastics union also banned the performance of the country's athletes - aggressors , together we can do even more to completely isolate their sport with

company hashtags and call for a boycott of russian and belarusian athletes, we must fight for on the sports front, until the war is over, silence kills, let's let it go because we understand that our people are the most important wealth, that's why we are happy for every ukrainian and the ukrainians we managed to save because we know that there is no small help and we are ready to support to the best of our ability with the projectile already in their beds only strengthens our unity and the desire to

win, in contrast to them, we will stand up, we will win and we will give up the ruins, we will sweep away a woman will never be, and here we are. psychological help to a child during air anxiety. children always take over . the state of adults, so it is important to keep calm if the child is nervous. explain that it is safe in the shelter and there is no need to be afraid to reduce the level of stress . calm the baby down, tell us about the strength of our army and the victory of our state, now there are children's tales about the air defense of ukraine, in no case

do not raise your voice there are enough countries,

yes, from there they still write petra’s nut, although the head fits on this very pin. well , everything is fine, so that’s what we’re doing. give the crankshaft there, it doesn’t interfere with all the questions. i'll even leave a little more later, see if vanya we'll do it like that, i'll use cars, let's say i've lived in a car since childhood, i got into an accident, they said you

won't drive it anymore, i was born with cars
