On March 12, 2023, on the day of the Synaxis of the Holy Fathers of Kyiv Caves, the Ministry of Culture will open the Dormition Cathedral of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra to the OCU once again. The “liturgy” will be led by Epifaniy Dumenko, reports the OCU press service.
The OCU called for an "understanding of the possible restrictions and security measures".
This is the fourth "service" to be led by Dumenko at the Lavra. Twice, the Ministry of Culture has opened the Dormition Cathedral to the OCU, and once - the Refectory Church.
As reported, supporters of the OCU brought extras to the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra for a "service" led by Dumenko.
