Constantinople Patriarchate prays for the unity of Ukrainian nation

The Constantinople Patriarchate has always paid close attention to the developments within the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and prayed for overcoming schism. It was said by Archbishop Job of Thelmessos during the visit to Istanbul by the UOC Chancellor Metropolitan Anthony of Borispol and Brovary.

"We know that things are not so easy in your Church, and we always pray for the unity of the Ukrainian people and for the unity of Orthodoxy in Ukraine," said Vladyka Job. “We pray that the Lord will pardon all of us and soon heal the schism Ukraine is affected with, which depletes the Church of Christ. And we hope and pray that the Lord will strengthen His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry and all the Archpastors so that the Church could develop and continue its mission, which is so important for today."
