A video of сhurch seizure in Verbivtsi published online
The Chernivtsi-Bukovyna Eparchy has published a video of storming St. Michael’s Church of the UOC in the village of Verbivtsi, Chernivtsi region.
The video shows the future "parishioners" of the OCU coming to "pray" in the church with a grinder, a sledgehammer, a generator and a crowbar.
"It seems that this 'service' kit is given as soon as you bring fabricated documents on forced transfer to the OCU to the registration department," the Chernivtsi Eparchy noted.
We remind you that on September 2, 2022, the head of the Zastavna village council, Vasyl Radish, ordered to break down the doors of St. Michael’s Church of the UOC in the village of Verbivtsi.
