Right Sector is to tell Vinnitsa parishes of the need to pass to OCU
The Right Sector calls Ukrainians to a rally at the UOC temple
The rally under the slogan "Pass to the Orthodox Church in Ukraine" will begin at 2 pm on January 6. Within the framework of the event, activists of right-wing radical organizations "are going to express their own position in a dialogue with believers of the UOC." It is reported by the Vinnitsa resource vn.20minut.ua.
"The Moscow Church makes Ukrainians doubt their own power," representatives of the Right Sector wrote in their urge to join tomorrow’s action.
Earlier, activists of the Rovno-based Prosvita agitated believers to pass to the OCU.
Recall, on January 5, Patriarch Bartholomew signed the Tomos for the Orthodox Church in Ukraine.
It is not for the first time that Vinnitsa has become a center of interfaith confrontation. For example, former metropolitan Simeon of Vinnitsa and Bar filed a lawsuit against the Ukrainian Orthodox Church with a secular court.
