An Easter cake, consecrated in the UOC, is just a cake. One of the “priests” of the OCU, who posted an ad with the corresponding text on his Instagram page, assures Ukrainians.

“It is truly possible to consecrate Easter and eggs only in the parishes of the OCU,” added Dumenko’s supporter.

However, soon the OCU clerk deleted the entry from the page, writing in the profile header that the announcement about the cake was a “UOC-produced fake”.

Earlier, the UOJ reported that one of the "priests" of the OCU remained silent in response to the words of the Channel 5 journalist, who called Holy Communion "crap from a spoon."
