In Lviv, the parishioners of the St. George Cathedral of the UOC-MP decided to transfer to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine, Deputy Head of the Lviv Regional Council Yuriy Kholod said. It was the main temple of the UOC-MP in Lviv.

“Temple on Taras Bobanych moved from the Moscow church to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine. Now it will be called in honor of St. Yuri the Victorious. Father Oleg sends a prayer service for the Ukrainian army. Come Sunday to bless the vine! ”, – wrote Kholod on Facebook.

In turn, the mayor of Lviv, Andrey Sadovy, noted that the situation with the property of the temple is a little complicated.. And there are two options to decide what to do with it.

“The property belongs to a religious community that verbally renounces the MP. Therefore, there are two options here: officially become the Ukrainian Church, or go through the process of nationalization. All the necessary documents for this have already been prepared,” Sadovyi said..
