UOC Сross Procession to the 1030th anniversary of the Baptism of Rus
On the air of the Inter TV channel, Bishop Clement announced a preliminary figure of the cross walkers – about 250 thousand people.
The number of believers of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church at the Kiev Procession is so great that people have completely filled the area from the Vladimir Hill to the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra.
The cross walkers are already entering the Lavra, but the flow of the faithful is not weakening: there are still many people on the Vladimir Hill.
