On November 21, the anniversary of the beginning of Euromaidan in Ukraine, the head of the OCU, Sergei (Epiphany) Dumenko, urged to remember its achievements, as well as to protect and strengthen them in the future. Dumenko wrote about this on his Facebook page.
He declared that it is necessary to preserve and strengthen the freedom and dignity gained at the cost of the lives of those who died during the Euromaidan and from its consequences.
Dumenko wished everyone to receive "fair peace and victory in the struggle for freedom", as well as the gift of unity and harmony.
“And most importantly, we are free to create our own future,” wrote the head of the OCU and recalled the words of the Apostle Paul that “ If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other” (Gal. 5: 13-15).
As reported, the professor of the UOC-KP said that the Phanar had already prepared its own exarch to replace Dumenko.
