Conflict between UOC and UOC-KP on the temple in Konstantinovka to be decided by the court
The representative of the Kiev Patriarchate filed the documents immediately before the meeting, and the court did not have time to study them, so the case was postponed.
The date of the next court session will be announced further.
The Kiev Patriarchate has already managed to accuse the Ukrainian court of corruption and promised to fight for the Sretensky Church, which the schismatics occupied in October 2015.
Concerning the seizure of the Sretensky temple, two cases were opened: the first – about illegal changes introduced in the minutes of meetings of the parish council, the second – about the confessional affiliation. The Gorlovka diocese of the UOC won the first case on August 8, 2017.
