Future in your hands: Priests of UOC revive Volyn forest
In the framework of the ecological action "The future of the forest – in your hands" and with the direct participation of the dean, Archpriest Peter Bugaychuk, the priests planted seedlings of the future forest in the Kolki forestry.
The work began with a prayer followed by the instruction given by the director of the Kolki forestry Alexander Chernishin. The priests and foresters worked for several hours without stopping for rest, and as a result, 14 seedlings of pine were planted on an area of 1.8 hectares.
"It is symbolic that the action took place at a time when Orthodox Christians are experiencing their spiritual spring, looking forward to the Feast of the Resurrection of Christ," writes the site.
Funds raised from planting crops will be sent to support the Orthodox children's camp "Rodnik", which operates in the Kolki deanery.
