In Lutsk Kiev Patriarchate forces doctors to sign for One local church

The personnel of the Volyn Regional Hospital have been forced to sign for One local church, report to Raskolam.net employees of the medical institution.

At the initiative of the head of the Volyn diocese of the UOC-KP Michael Zinkevich and president of the clinics Ivan Sidor, the collection of signatures for the creation of the so-called One local church was launched.

"The event has outraged the hospital workers, because among them there are many people who belong to other denominations and religions, and the collection of signatures was "voluntary-compulsory", says the source. In addition, it became known that the hospital has limited access to clergy of other religious organizations, but the UOC-KP opened a church at the hospital last year.
