On 3 December 2023, Serhiy Dumenko "consecrated" the Church of Faith, Hope, Love and their mother Sophia in Odesa, in which the royal gates of the iconostasis were made in the form of a trident, reports "Informator".

According to the publication, the iconostasis was made in the village of Kosiv, Ivano-Frankivsk region, by master Roman Pivtorak.

He has been making iconostases for more than 20 years and, according to him, he always tries to add a trident on the royal gates, which he calls "heavenly".

"Our iconostasis now glorifies the Ukrainian and Ukraine as a whole, on the territory of the Odesa region Orthodoxy," Pivtorak told reporters.

As reported, the Ministry of the Ministry assured that the OCU did not canonise the dog Patron.
