After 8 months, the cleric of the Dnipropetrovsk Eparchy Archpriest Andrii Pinchuk has been lifted from the ban on ministry, as reported on the Telegram channel "Veselyi pip" (“Cheerful Priest”).
"With the blessing of Metropolitan Onuphry of Kyiv, Metropolitan Iriney lifted the ban. I thank them for this reasonable decision, very important both for me and for our parishioners," the priest wrote. In the attached video he said that the UOC for him is "a native Church, the Church in which I was born".
As earlier reported, an OCU “priest” held a “service” at Fr. Andrii Pinchuk’s church.
In May 2023, the priest Andrii Pinchuk was banned from ministry.
