held funeral services dead, believers cleared churches of various debris, because often church buildingsre converted into granaries, warehouses, clubs, believers in newly opened churches carried crosses, icons and various liturgical objects that they saved during times of church persecution. the priests remained faithful to their flock, took an oath of allegiance to the church, and of course, the pastoral duty of the priest dictated that he act according to his conscience in a given situation. many priests, they were guided by this pastoral feeling, the feeling of love, assessed the situation that was developing directly at that time, it is clear that they tried in every possible way to save and help those people with whom they live, who are their parishioners. for some german leaders, the implementation of the church strategy has become the starting point. to satisfy their own ambitions, the nazi intelligence services, the main directorate of reich security and the abwehr entered into confrontation. some supported bormann and his position to develop religious life in the occupied territ

head of the church.rgei, until june 22 , was generally deprived of the right to vote, he was deprived of the opportunity to actually lead the church, that is, he seemed to live his very limited life, performed divine services, he did not have the right to even address his flock, not to mention what to citizens soviet union. metropolitan sergius draws attention to the swastika, and he says: “we are christians, we have the cross of christ, and here is a swastika.” a broken cross with broken ends, and this is a pagan symbol, supposedly the third reich brings liberation from godlessness, the liberation of the church, this is a deception, we stand up to defend our country, our people, we defend the cross of christ, we are christians and do not succumb to this temptation to believe release hitler and his henchmen. several underground communities operated in the gomel and mogilev regions. the priests were in an illegal situation, some, in order to survive, were engaged in non-spiritual activities. some worked o

church.ostates and tried to figure it out. to understand where the origins of such a terrible split on this unfortunate land come from, in this cradle of orthodoxy, it was then that the polishization of the russian land began. it was then that the poles gave the name to the russian land that we hear and see today. ukraine, which means the outskirts. after many centuries of polish occupation, the russian empire managed to return under its sovereign hand. year, the russian empire, as an orthodox monarchy, collapsed, and immediately, literally a few months later, self-identifiers appeared, who not only built the state of ukraine on the remains of little russia, but wanted to have their own church and church hierarchy. u the current schism in ukraine has a long prehistory, and here we must remember that it all began after the october revolution of 1917, when... the tattoo of the local church, implying its administrative independence from other local churches, asking for autocephaly means asking f

the church received another blow in his old age.young, quiet, but ambitious assistant epiphany dumenko, betrayed his patron filoret and was elected head of a certain the orthodox church of ukraine, this brainchild of the american state department member of the oaoc, the ukrainian autocephalous orthodox church. naturally, state budgets were also epiphanes, filoret’s rage was indescribable. the agreements were between me, president poroshenko and epifaniy, and not only between the three of us, but with the bishops. and at the bishops’ council there was an agreement that i would continue to lead, representing the church at the international level. that was the agreement. we didn't sign it in writing because i trusted the president and epiphania, but they deceived. i, as a patriarch , must govern the ukrainian church. on the territory of ukraine, and epiphany refused to rule himself. real persecution of canonical priests has begun, criminal cases have been initiated, they are subjected to torture and repression, churches are seized, thr

orthodox church, a church, and do not mislead ukrainians that you are a ukrainian church, but in fact there is no such thing, that is, it can always... to be there partly for those who wish for russians in ukraine, if they wish to have, for example, churches, to visit them, then there are no problems, but then the question arises for ukrainians on the territory of russia, how many ukrainians are there, there are millions of ukrainians on the territory of russia federation, but we do not have any church, we do not have any representative office, that is... it is a normal phenomenon when another church can be present on the territory of one local orthodox church, which, with the permission of the local church, serves and provides spiritual services, you are here spiritual support, you have come to a very important topic here, because when i started studying the church issue, i will be honest, i don't... go to churches, but somehow already during the full-scale full-scale invasion, i found myself in the czech republic, communicating with ukrainians there , who here in ukraine are and wer

in the regions of belarus, church life was preserved, churches were opened here, monasteries and theological operated, dioceses worked, pinsk grodninsko and poleska. this was due to the fact that until 1939 the territory was under polish occupation, but in relation to the orthodox church, the authorities of the second polish-lithuanian commonwealth carried out quite tough and repressive policies, belarusian culture, literature and traditions that were studied in educational centers and social institutions operating at orthodox parishes, but by unknown attackers there were more than 800 orthodox churches throughout poland, and this naturally was such a planned action with the complete inaction of the polish police. after the reunification of western and eastern belarus, orthodox parishes and monasteries that were under the influence of the polish autocephalous church returned to the structure of the russian orthodox church. from under arrest in zherovichi archbishop panteleimon razhnovsky was released from the monastery. he was standing. so to speak, at the helm of the church, when the war ca

course, and it's not a ukrainian church, it's a russian church masquerading as a ukrainian church, and that's why we 've been talking about what's needed for a long time, but aren't all the priests there followers of russia, patriarch kirill and putin, not all, not all, there is a large part of those who are, but you generalize now they are hesitating, but they must make the appropriate decision: are they on the side of ukraine, or are they on the side of the aggressor? that is, it is a collective responsibility, if many priests have made a decision, many communities have made a decision to join the local ukrainian orthodox church, they have this opportunity, no one denies it, that is, it is a voluntary choice of each priest, faithful or in general. communities, they make decisions and join our local orthodox church. i don't know how many priests joined the last two years, let's say , maybe there are hundreds of priests, i won't tell you the exact statistics now, about 200 communities, over the last time, let's take 5 years, it's about 200 temples, real communities, because we know tha

but tell me, are they singing hymns and flags of ukraine in the church?, they pray before they pray, why do they need confessions? that these people are unbelievers, unfortunately, that they don’t know what they are doing, and well, i would like to wish them, god give them health, god give them wisdom, because if they have wisdom and health, spiritual, mental, physical, then they will understand and distinguish between truth and falsehood, understand where the church of christ is. the united states, the west, yes, initially set the task of tearing the ukrainian people away from the russian people, and above all, by destroying what... united the common church, the canonical one, so, of course, it is so the so-called orthodox church, ukraine will not be able to become, well, even some kind of surrogate, i would say the orthodox church, but it is too weak for this, not authoritative and marginal, so it will certainly be absorbed by the ukrainian greek catholic church, which... before all these events, people like george soros planned the orange revolutions,

i believe that whenever this happens to any church, it divides the church, it kills the church.hed in this matter. i think this is due to the fact that support for this movement in the united states has declined. it began to decline. i think we 've seen a climax, especially in relation. mr. brownback is more conservative than the so-called metropolitan epifaniy. and even the republicans are shocked by what is happening with their, let’s say, invention, which they introduced into the ukrainian agenda. here's what brownback thinks about the laurel and what's happening there now, let's look at the excerpt. what do you think about what we should do with lava, the main temple of kiev? honestly, honestly, i think you should. "i'm not disappointed at all, i thought it should have happened 500 years ago, but i was glad it happened, i thought it was obviously what is necessary, and for the national creation of ukraine is very useful, to have your own orthodox church, i think this is very important, sent a clear signal, it is called in diplomatic language, that is, but it says very clearl

the church building was built in 1866, on the site of a wooden church that existed before that time,down in a fire. descriptions of the churches of the parishes of the minsk diocese for 1879 contain information that in the pre-mongol era there were seven churches in the city, all of which, unfortunately, have not survived. the church of the ascension of the lord in the city of kopal is built of rubble stone with elements. state it was transferred to the orthodox church already in the nineties, it begins here the revival of this temple, divine services begin here, priests begin to come to serve, then the restoration of the temple begins little by little, with god's help to this day we also continue what was started by those predecessors who served here, well, before us, during its century and a half history the temple has seen ... the heyday of church life and tragic moments in history. before the revolution of the year 177, the temple was the center of religious life. as evidenced by the description of churches and parishes of the minsk diocese in in religious terms, the parishioners

i like easter because when we go to church, i see my girlfriend alexandra, we sit at the top of the churchwant the days of this easter week to pass with precisely such bright and pure thoughts, a week filled with joy and faith in the victory of good over evil, which is symbolized by the resurrection of christ. anna yafimova, valery savelelev, anastasia popova, typical novorossiya. about what the faith of god has always meant for people living in novorossiya and what thoughts arise during easter week? we will talk with our regular expert, historian and political scientist rastislav ishchenko. rastislav, good afternoon, good afternoon. rastislav, what people did in the donbass in novorossiya 10 years ago, when they decided to change their fate, was actually radical, was there something that makes them turn to god more often, earlier and today, well, that’s it this. and it was, this is what forces, that is, when a person radically changes his destiny, he, as modern psychologists say, leaves his comfort zone, when there is a sharp break in his usual life, yes, everything, everything that was,

the church is a mother, and women in the church are the ones who help foster that motherliness.at the ones who never abandoned jesus were the women. the men all fled. >> norah: pope francis has placed more women in positions of power than any of his predecessors. by the numbers, women are the backbone of the catholic church. nearly 600,000 serve as nuns. but pope francis opposes allowing women to join the church's clerical hierarchy. you will have many young boys and girls that will come here at the end of next month for world children's day. and i'm curious. for a little girl growing up catholic today, will she ever have the opportunity to be a deacon and participate as a clergy member in the church? >> pope francis: no. >> norah: i understand you have said no women as priests, but you are studying the idea of women as deacons. is that something you are open to? >> interpreter: if it is deacons with holy orders, no. but women have always had, i would say, the function of deaconesses without being deacons, right? women are of great service as women, not as ministers, as minister

that formally belonged to the ukrainian orthodox church, the church that condemned.e, russia or madagascar, which means that if, for example, there was once a moment of particularly acute confrontation between orthodox and catholics, orthodox christians did not pray in catholic churches or in orthodox churches. now, in principle, even while staying abroad, if there are no orthodox churches around, a person can go and pray in a catholic church, although, so to speak, he cannot perform the catholic sacraments, that is , he cannot partake of the catholic sacraments, but he can go in and pray at desire, because it's all the same a christian church, yes, that means , accordingly, especially in an orthodox church, not to pray, it’s another matter that the ukrainian orthodox church has its position... initially occupied, not even now, when it began to shake out of its own, but its initially occupied position , she turned herself into an actual trap, the ukrainian orthodox church justified its... since the church is ukrainian, yes, and operates where there is an independent

church of st.holas. ever since the declaration of ukraine's independence , believers have been promised right in front of the church door that... very soon it will be returned to the parish, the president also promised, president kuchma personally promised st. john paul ii, who was in to this church, that the church is already being handed over, even our president zelensky in 2020 personally wrote a letter to pope francis that the church is already being returned, but we see, unfortunately, this has not happened yet, the official name. the temple is a house of organ music, because of this the institution is subordinate to the ministry of culture and information policy. in june 2022 , the ministry of culture and the parish signed a memorandum according to which the church was to be handed over to the religious community. however, on may 1, at the viryan liturgy for the return of the temple, representatives the ministry of culture did not appear. a month ago, we sent a request to the cabinet of minis

it's a big church. it is a big church. jide is someone who's turned his life around.so carry. so, protect yourself. by the �*80s, the outbreak of hiv and aids, which killed millions worldwide, saw gay people stigmatised. you must wear a condom. some politicians even called for making gay sex illegal again. we've rolled forward since 1957 and today is very different. we've got aids, which is a menace to health. and the schoolbook the education secretary wants to ban. in 1988, a law was brought in to stop schools from doing what they said was promoting homosexuality. there's some very good material on sex education, but this is propaganda. it was called section 28. ..are being taught that they have an inalienable right to be gay. in 1990, justin fashanu became the world's first top—level footballer to come out as gay. his professional career ended soon after. no, i'd do the same again because the bottom line is be true to yourself — the bottom line. he took his own life eight years later, aged 37. by 1994, the government lowered the age of consent for gay men from 21 to

, and there are such moments, i know, when there is a village and... there is a church of the moscowatriarchate, and the other church is too many tens of kilometers, and of course that no one will take the fallen hero there, they say here, but we will not, well, these, and plus the fact that they give information, they become not what they become, but remain agents of the enemy, who in one way or another are sometimes activated and they impose kremlin narratives, sometimes they openly, simply openly talk about it, and here the question is what mykola knyazhytskyi, one of the authors of this law, writes about the fact that this m... bill number 8371 on amendments to of some laws of ukraine regarding the activity of religious organizations in ukraine, was voted in the first were read back in october 23rd, but they are now getting to the point where they want to send it for the third reading, then we are not sure what the votes will be, then let's guess at some date, then let's wait for something, then let's study public public opinion on this, that is, but even here people have questio

he sees the church, as he puts the emphasis on poverty, he sees the church out there, dirty, bruised and hurting in the world instead of behind comfortable walls. i think he might be the one who breaks down some of the walls of gender and sexuality and especially class since he puts so much emphasis on the poor. >> the first judgment. >> and i am crazy about that. i went to the jesuit school. >> who are they? >> they are considered the great educators. they go back hundreds of years. they believe they are the ones who educated people in the faith and a lot of training, takes a long time. after years of schooling and training. i took primarily theology and scripture and i was always impressed. one of the teachers who taught me greek for two years, gave me a recommendation to going to seminary and was going to come to my ordination but he got sick. >> they are rigorous in their training. constituted two quite presbyterian. that is another story. okay, so della and the new pope. what else? >> i would say also you have to look at gay marriage. even though 16 states approve of it now, and

today's easter services are held in large churches, in small churches like these, and the heart of everyeliever at this moment is filled with hope and faith. on a good day, on this bright holiday, alexander lukashenko thanked the clergy for their important spiritual mission. addressing those gathered, the belarusian president will remember how in childhood everyone looked forward to bright sunday. the holiday fills people's hearts and souls with warmth. this year it so happened that literally right after easter... this health, as i always say, will be health, we will acquire everything else, we will buy it, at this time we remember and pray for peace, this is probably the main thing, if there is no peace, then there is no need for health, there is no need for education, in general a person does not need anything if there is no peace, peace with yourself, in your souls and hearts, if there is no peace in the family, if... there is no peace in the end in the state, we have realized this very seriously now, and today the war has come to the home of our native people, very close to us, and i

and most importantly, how to talk with contemporaries about the life of the church, about the doctrinef the eternal gospel truths. almost every a person can say where he will be, in hell or heaven. this is all that you and i are experiencing, this is what we will take with us. comes into conflict with his life, with his actions towards a person. firstly, i would like to say about the impression that the broadcast of the shepherd’s word made on me when i first saw it and since then i have become its regular viewer. i was still a schoolchild then, i had just come to church, was baptized at a conscious age, and when i saw this program for the first time, i became its regular viewer, in many episodes that i later greedily... literally, i’m not afraid of this word , i watched and was really looking forward to it, i found a huge number of answers to the questions that occupied me, i know that i’m not alone, that indeed for many this saturday program was and remains a window into the world of faith, and many people, precisely through these programs, came to church, discovered god for themselv

church of st.icholas of japan on kamennaya the hill from 8 am welcomes large families, the area has a young strong faith. confirmation of the children's religious procession, it ended with a festive liturgy, the lighting of food continued in the morning, in the open bell tower to ring the bell to announce the good news, queues gather and the whole mood on the eve is joyful and solemn, easter is our favorite holiday, we always go with the children , today it’s true that not everyone is a family, the elders there are already preparing the table for us, probably a family tradition, yes, because they are always with their parents we’re going, so we decided to be young too. restoration of unity between the spiritual and the easter of christ, it just speaks about the physical, because they wanted to take the soul away from christ, it seemed to work, but jesus rose from the dead. easter is not a holiday of one day, bright week is ahead, for 40 days you can greet each other with the canonical christ is ris

his er, that is, consistency and loyalty to the russian orthodox church, while leading.dox, you understand that the closer you are to the border with russia, therefore, one should be more careful in accusing him of ukrainophilism, and as they say now, of nazism, fascism and so on, and he withstood, let's be honest, the line that was expected of him, a person who was brought up in moscow traditions, in the traditions of moscow clergy schools and on... still could not behave, that is, he is such, you know, the right-wing radical wing in the ukrainian orthodox church, he never demonstrated his attachment to ukraine itself, and he probably did not perceive the ukrainian orthodox church as national, according to its content and form, but simply by name, well , geographically it is located on the territory of ukraine, that is why it is called the ukrainian church, and yes... in general, it is a part, subsidiary, part, subsidiary of this russian church, well, they call it the russian orthodox a church that has spread its influence over the entire territory of the post-soviet un

in the russian church?cannot compare, but before the war, if you were to go and compare the relationship of priests to people, which is communication with a priest in the local community, with believers, these are completely different things, although you can come to ukraine to moscow patriarchate and you will get into... allegedly he is some kind of local prince who commands people, namely a priest from the word service, he serves people, we are like that, i joke that we are rumors for people who set the table. and this must be remembered, and what is left in european countries is that the priest is called to serve the people, just as the civil servant is called to serve the people, the policeman, the military officer, we are all called to serve the people, this is the main difference between us from today, father serhiy, you also served the russians. but chose the ukrainian church, do your colleagues who cannot dare to take this step turn to you, or ask for some advice, or on the contrary, they turned awa

events, but again the church never forgets the departed, that is, every day we commemorate not only the living, but we remember the departed, but there are periods of special, perhaps prayerful tension, well, let’s say, this is great lent, in great lent, there the rhythm changes somewhat, since great lent, it is focused on the suffering of christ, naturally, it all ends with the holiday of easter , then the church is trying to concentrate. the thought of believers at these events reduces funeral prayers to a certain minimum, that is, the church really commemorates, but for this purpose, say, saturdays are set aside, that is, every saturday of lent, there is a a special, special, funeral commemoration, that is, on friday evening a prayer is performed, which is called parostas, yes, where the seventeenth kofism is considered and there is a special commemoration, on saturday a memorial service is served, why? so we are trying to compensate for the lack of prayers during the week, because the full liturgy according to the church charter is not served, we need to somehow not forget our d

nikolai heltov served in the local church.urch of john the baptist back in 1929. by the beginning of the great patriotic war, he was already an experienced priest who was trusted by parishioners. from the first days of the occupation, the shepherd hid and treated those around him in his house. at the hut they provided the first megatan aid to the partisans who were paralyzed from their missions there. the taksama yans lived there. father nikolai was helped by his brother georgy heltov, also a priest, rector of the temple shelter of the blessed virgin mary in kletsk, he organized the collection of food for soviet prisoners of war, and saved jewish children. in 1943, when children were brought here from orphanages in minsk, among them were jewish children, jews and father george, in order to save the children, he baptized them. he wrote out baptismal certificates with orthodox names, thanks to this the children remained alive, and the priests were also able to win over the head of the cell police, who reported about ambushes and

russian orthodox church, a structural division of this moscow church, and so far, unfortunately, inada of ukraine, we do not see consideration of this issue, we will ask this question. at the conciliatory council, because it is a little secret that the verkhovna rada meeting will soon be resumed again, because in our opinion, this question, the question of the banning of the moscow church, should stand there together with the first one, you know, we celebrated yesterday, celebrated embroidery day, and there are also such discussions that they say that not everything that is embroidered is embroidery, you know, but we are so calm about it, because, well, there for a couple of years, we weren’t there three years ago... we looked at those braids that president zelensky wore, and now he’s gone out in a normal embroidered dress, well, it takes time, it takes a little time for people to understand what it is and so on, but when it comes to buildings, for example, which have been standing for decades and centuries, everything is not more complicated here, and you know, they mentioned that

written sources for this church, this is not the creation of some new church, and not a reconstructionof the memorial and the renovation work carried out there , a new museum was created and opened, a completely new exhibition, and it is rather a museum of emotions, a museum space in which, with the help of new information technologies, there is a complete immersion in those dramatic events.

in addition to the syrian church, the optic church and the ethiopian church are also participating, but course, the main role will be played by the orthodox church and representatives of the holy armenian apostolic church. fire. now we see representatives of the syrian community waving flags, and representatives of the armenian church will be in the angel's limit. the limit of the angel, which precedes the very main place where the lodges are located, the burial of the savior, and there he will be, uh, another delegation that traditionally takes part in the convergence is representatives of the coptic church, well now, yes, now we see. these are just representatives of the coptic, coptic church, who are also taking their place, yeah, yes, here’s another one of our official ones coptic delegation, representatives of the coptic church, according to the status quo, each of the denominations has special responsibilities, special rights, this symbol is the famous immovable staircase, which is located... above the entrance through which the delegation passes now, as we see, of the hoft church

, and the church will do its job. us negers have agreed on the withdrawal of american troops from this country, and they plan to do all this before september 15th. hope for great mercy, god will help us in the construction of churches, because every task is to build churches, the task is to organize social service, because these are poor people, at every temple we need to do something educational, a sunday school, so we need to think about medicine, about supporting people, about water pumps, there are russian communities in these countries, who are our compatriots, in some countries these are not small communities, there we need to think about churches that will be not only for the local population, but also for they helped our russian brothers and sisters, we will do this work in a churchly manner. in africa , in those churches where there is such educational activity, it is often the priest himself or one of his assistants who tells the very basics, that is, this is the very beginning, to speak it’s premature to th

maxim has a new hobby: collecting items of church use, in particular icons and old church books.r churches or even from private collections of residents of the kherson region, and then take them to tarasenko in the church. the little non-priest rubs his hands, smiles at the camera and thanks occupation authorities. we once again thank the law enforcement officers. for the fact that they hand over to the diocese everything that... is obtained during their investigative operations. they have to go back to church, and that's a huge thank you. let's call a spade a spade, for example, not a search operation, but a robbery, and return not to the church, but to father maxim's private collection. in the next video, he modestly talked about material value. law enforcement. law enforcement agencies were able to, perhaps earlier stolen here these church shrines to be found, removed and returned, all this, both icons and books, they constitute historical, spiritual, and certain material value. after the de-occupation of harson, tarasenko disappeared and later appeared in crimea. instead of p

are inscriptions in greek, la tène, church slavonic, and if church slavonic is a little easier, thesed, then the inscriptions are in latin or greek, for many people... that there is a lot of graffiti on in latin, in greek, and nesves, also a fairly famous place for the history of belarus, in the farny church, where you can find a lot of inscriptions in latin, and of course, when we arrive there, we, someone simply admires the view, someone admires the frescoes, and a philologist, when they come to such places, the first thing he sees there is the inscriptions, so we tried to collect them, systematize them, translate them. and as a result, last year we presented the first results, we had an exhibition has been organized, which is now traveling around belarus, to schools, to other universities, to colleges, and through such an exhibition, including future students of the faculty of philology, can find out what awaits them here, that philology is not boring, that it alive, that you can not only sit in it, read books, but... also learn about the world, learn about our history, sometimes i

of course, joined the small church.creating a family, the fact is that i studied, in fact, in minsk there are a lot of good girls, beautiful girls, but i was always worried about the question of how to find the one who will be my wife, i really wanted, so that god would bless this matter, but i didn’t understand how to do it, even though i studied to be a psychologist, i knew a lot of things, but in fact, just like the wise solomon says that a wise wife is from god, when i heard these words , i prayed for a very long time, i've been praying for about a year i prayed every day, i understood that this was a very important step in life, about a year later , when i was studying at the university, i proposed, because it seemed to me that the moment we met on the third day i would do i was very worried that such a beautiful girl would not be taken away, that no one would beat me, 19 days passed from the moment of the proposal to the moment of our wedding, thus our small church was created, this is... a very blessed place, fam

the church is stale, more than 50 years old, the rector of the church was front-line soldier dmitry khmelnt at the age of 17, added a year to be taken into the army, this is 1944, most of the territory of the soviet union has already been liberated, including the one where the future priest lived , it so happened that it was in the house of khmely that the headquarters of general konev was located, acquaintance with him pushed the young man to go to the front. this is an icon, it’s like a relic of our family, her... vskorshu, lepel, begomol, lagoisk, then lithuania and east prussia, where he was seriously wounded. all the soldiers from his unit died, he was the only one who survived. he went with a grenade to the enemy's point, threw the grenade, and the bullet remained in his thigh, closer to the spine. for 3 days he lay there under the sprinkled earth, they had already sent a funeral to his parents. after the hospital, the front was again, and he ended the war in könexberg as a member. a warrior of christ, and a warrior of christ is a winner, as they say, an army of priests is something

, the canonical one, therefore, of course, the so -called orthodox church of ukraine will not be ableeven some kind of surrogate, i would say to the orthodox church, it is too weak for this, not authoritative and marginal, so it will certainly absorb it... the ecumenical patriarchate of constantinople. one theory is that the state department bribed patriarch bartholomew to support the split in ukraine. according to rumors , he expected to receive $25 million a year from ukraine from poroshenko and from the churches, which would then be subordinate to him. obviously this plan is in a rather negative light. now i'm glad. that is, autocephaly of the ukrainian church, and despite the accusation the russian orthodox church is that i took money for granting autocephaly, i say that in fact i did not take money, i took a lot of such sweets and chocolates from poroshenko’s factory. yes, it is necessary to go through inspection, the territory is well guarded, it is divided into... two service parts, where bartholomew’s office is located, the temple itself with a small church shop, we arrived at

remain, at least nominally, by churches i mean exactly the churches connected with moscow, connectedh lubyanka in some way, connected with the kremlin, because of this unity with the moscow patriarch, and on the occupied territories, we remember that there are priests who had pro-ukrai. the position of the occupiers, maybe, maybe we need to go ahead here, maybe we need to get ahead of even other orthodox churches, and go completely to the gregorian calendar so that we can emphasize our separation and so that people know that they are still a month ago, they celebrated easter and everything, the civilized world, apologizing, well, the world in africa is different, not all countries are terribly civilized, but they can be cathartic. the same is latin america, rather, the west, the western vector, the western world, you know, in zaporizhzhia this is the issue of the patriarchates, it is still relevant, unfortunately, we live very close to the front, but all the same in our moscow church these two years they have been working there and, unfortunately, believers also go there, and you kno

sergius church.eful life, he baptized ukrainian children, married young couples, prayed for peace. now his prayer is for another peace, russian. when russian tanks entered skadovsk and occupied the city, he decided to leave it to the beasts to later impose kremlin ideas on them. may peace, love and harmony flourish in their prayers, in our families, in our family and in our society. pip started more often with. bloc, and for us churchmen, this is first of all not some kind of political entity, some kind of holy russia. next, kanyuka advances the crimean ones ideas for children. here is a video he conducted for the seventh grade of school number 1 in skadovsk. in which he talked about human honor and loyalty. i wonder how he knows about all these qualities? this conversation, as i said, it is desirable that it not... be the last, for once. and so that this conversation comes not only from church officials, so that this topic is also discussed in society, by parents. better give this pop a lecture on t

in the morning services were held in all churches. the primate of the russian orthodox church , patriarch kirill, led the divine liturgy in the cathedral of christ the savior, and before that he congratulated the believers on the upcoming easter. the rising from the tomb of the savior adds death to immortality, sadness to joy, doom to hope; on the cross in resurrection the god of infinite goodness and perfect love is revealed to us. awareness of this all-conquering love of god encourages us to be grateful to the creator and gives us strength to overcome the most difficult mental states. difficult circumstances, elevates you above your everyday life, helps correct previous mistakes and destroys despondency. preventing us from living fully and developing spiritually. on holy saturday, according to tradition, immediately after morning services in churches , easter treats are illuminated: easter cakes, colored eggs - the main symbols of the holiday. the churches today are crowded and the atmosphere is especially warm. ivan prozurov will c

, they call it suddenly... a wagon churches, in fact yes, it is indisputable that, as christ said, upn the name will gather, there is a church, yes, but it is clear that the situation is a little different here , because the place where a construction trailer was first built, which was trimmed with crosses , copals and infrastructure, and in the end it was obvious, even from before of the previous management of the historical museum, one way or another... polished, due to the fact that the electricity came from the museum, we must tell the truth, and what was, well, let's say this, there were documents to the effect that there were even some permits, but we today we are talking about the fact that the tithe church, which was built by volodymyr, and was the first stone church, which was then rebuilt by peter mohyly, then later times, has no relation to that mafu kiosk, which the russian orthodox church began to build, so of course it is itself... and of course, the building itself is located on a sacred place for ukraine and not just for ukraine, but for the whole of central eastern eu

, therefore we must understand that currently the influence of the russian orthodox church in ukraine very large, and precisely the lack or unwillingness of the verkhovna rada to vote for this draft law, it is very revealing, because it means that the influence of political the roc remains on our people's deputies, we know that there are several people's deputies who are still in the servant of the people faction, who do not hide their, let's say, their love for the roc and protection of the roc, so for now we just have to choose whose side are you on, that is, because there is already a difference to be played there, or let's postpone this question for sometime, it won't work, because you have to understand... that this war, it is not being waged only at the front, but even now it is being conducted in the rear, including, if we are talking about agents of influence, the russian orthodox church. i'm literally just recently there was a bright christian holiday, easter, and then there were holidays, and i noticed, i went to mykhailivskyi zolotoverch and the cathedral, there were a lot
