In Rivne, a former UOC cleric Mykhailo Semenovych, after defecting to the OCU, gathers parishioners for services with the help of advertisements posted on poles, reports the Rivne Eparchy's press service.
The announcements inform about the schedule of services in the former UOC church.
"After the transition to the OCU, 'father' Mykhailo (the Sergiy of Radonezh Church in Rivne – Ed.) gathers parishioners by advertisements for services. The announcements are posted on poles," the message said.
On June 9, 2023, the UOC Eparchy of Rivne banned Archpriest Mykhailo Simonovych, a cleric of the Church of the Sergey of Radonezh, from the priesthood "for falling into schism”.
